The holidays are a natural time to think about what comes next. Toys get set aside. Experiences last. Enrolling your child at Camps ‘R’ Us this winter means giving them something to look forward to all season long, and giving yourself the peace of mind of having the summer sorted before spring arrives.
Family-owned and operated since 1993, Camps ‘R’ Us is Long Island’s most affordable ACA-accredited private day camp. We have welcomed nearly 2,000 participants annually for over three decades across our nine school-campus locations in Nassau and Suffolk counties. Spots fill. Enrolling early is the best way to make sure your child has theirs.
A Summer That Does More Than Keep Kids Busy
We believe we build better qualities in kids. That is not a tagline we put on a brochure and forget about. It is the standard we hold ourselves to every day.
Our program is built around the idea that a great summer is also a purposeful one. Every activity on our suburban school campuses, from athletics on the fields to creative projects in the classrooms, is designed to help kids develop independence, social skills, and confidence. Not because we make it feel like school, but because good programming naturally produces those things when kids are engaged, active, and having fun.

Programs for Every Age, From 3 to 8th Grade
We offer specialized programs that grow with your child year after year. Every program is designed for the specific developmental stage of the campers in it.
- Tiny Tots® (Ages 3-5): Tiny Tots® is a gentle, structured introduction to camp life for our youngest participants, with activities built specifically for preschool-aged children.
- KinderKamp®: KinderKamp® is designed for children who have just completed Kindergarten, bridging the gap between early childhood play and a more structured camp experience.
- Grade-Based Programs (1st through 4th Grade): Our Campers program follows a dynamic daily schedule that includes sports, swimming, and off-campus field trips, with two included trips per summer plus optional bonus trip opportunities.
- Explorers® (Grades 5-8): Explorers® gives older campers more autonomy, more advanced activities, and a full slate of field trips included in tuition.
- C.I.T. Program: Our Counselor-in-Training program provides leadership development for our oldest participants and lays the groundwork for future staff roles.
Why Long Island Families Choose Camps ‘R’ Us
Safety is the foundation. As a licensed, ACA-accredited camp, we maintain rigorous standards across all nine of our locations. Our staff go through thorough background checks and pre-summer training before the season starts. Parents drop off and pick up directly, every day, which keeps the start and end of every camp day simple and consistent.
We also know that Long Island families have complicated schedules. That is why we offer complete flexibility with no minimum enrollment requirement. You choose the weeks that work for your family. Camp runs from 9:00 AM to 4:30 PM daily, with extended care options available for families who need more coverage.
And because we operate exclusively through school campus partnerships rather than maintaining our own facilities, we can keep our tuition the most competitive on Long Island without cutting corners on quality. High quality and high value are not in conflict here. That is the whole point.
