Best for little nature lovers
Brooklyn Forest
Brooklyn Forest runs half-day 'forest classroom' sessions in Prospect Park, around Long Meadow and Grand Army Plaza, aimed at the youngest kids and parent-child pairs. It's outdoor, play-based, and gentle, a first taste of nature camp rather than a full day of coverage.

NYC camp permit
A specialty or enrichment program, not a NYC-permitted children's camp, so the DOHMH camp-permit requirement doesn't apply. We confirm it operates as described.
Source: NYC DOHMH Children's Camp permits (Child Care Connect). A permit confirms the camp meets the city's health and safety requirements; it is not a quality or popularity score.
