The Waldorf School of Saratoga Springs has opened its doors this summer for a series of screen‑free camps aimed at encouraging play, creativity and a connection with nature. The programs, which are currently in session for the summer of 2026, provide families with an option for a vacation that excludes digital devices.
The camps are organized around themed activities that focus on hands‑on learning and outdoor experiences. Participants engage in projects designed to spark imagination while spending time in natural settings surrounding the school campus. By eliminating screens, the curriculum seeks to foster direct interaction with the environment and with fellow campers.
Open to the wider community, the camps welcome children of various ages, offering age‑appropriate programs that cater to differing skill levels and interests. The Waldorf School emphasizes that enrollment is not limited to its own students, inviting families throughout Saratoga Springs to take part in the technology‑free offerings.
School officials note that the initiative responds to a growing demand for alternatives to screen‑based entertainment during school breaks. By providing a structured yet flexible environment, the camps aim to give parents a reliable option for a summer experience centered on physical activity, artistic expression and nature immersion.
