Summer Program

Battery Park City Day Nursery offers a summer program during July and August.  Our main goal in the summertime is to create an atmosphere of cooperation, exploration, and spirited fun.  The many planned events, activities and outings plus spontaneous experiences create an interesting season.

During the summer, some of the classrooms are transformed into very special clubhouses where children can explore open-ended materials while using their creativity and imagination. The clubhouses include: Imagination Creations, The Lab, Art Adventures, Action & Exploration & The Water Zone.   Children will engage in cooking & science projects, along with  art projects that include various mediums such as paint, collage, clay and wood.  The children will also participate in acting out group skits and puppet shows along with playing with rhythm instruments and exploring our light and shadow wall. Our backyard is always a big hit on hot days and the children will play with sprinklers, water tables and squirt bottles.  Picnics are planned during excursions to the local parks.  Children aged four years and older can take field trips away from Battery Park City.

Flexible scheduling is available.  Contracts can be tailored to meet your family’s needs.  You may sign up for two weeks or the entire summer.  Monthly, weekly and half-day children are welcome.
