Hello Parents! We're delighted to introduce you to Kids 'N Comedy, the leading comedy school for children in New York City. This dynamic institution offers a range of classes including stand-up comedy, advanced writer workshops, and even a summer camp! With programs designed for kids between the ages of 10 and 18, this school is a buzzing hub of laughter and learning. They even organize monthly live stand-up comedy shows, providing a real-world stage for budding comedians to showcase their talent. At Kids ‘N Comedy, our experienced staff is comprised of accomplished writers and comedians from New York City. Their shared journey is what makes them so passionate about this project. They recall their teenage years, when they didn't have access to a program like this one, and are committed to ensuring today's youth don't miss out on this unique opportunity. Through their dedication, they aim to fill the void they once felt by providing the comic experience to the young generation. We invite you to get to know the brilliant minds behind Kids ‘N Comedy. This talented team is not just teaching comedy, they're nurturing creativity, confidence, and a love for laughter in our children. They're shaping the future stand-up comedians, writers, and performers of tomorrow. So, come on parents, let's meet these comedy wizards and discover how they're making a difference in our children's lives.
At Camp Kehilla, we prioritize the unique needs of each and every camper. Our camp is designed to make the traditional summer camp experience available to those with special needs, providing a customized experience for children ages 5-21 with developmental disabilities, Autism spectrum disorder, and/or other neurodevelopmental conditions. Our approach combines the fun of typical camp activities such as swimming, arts & crafts, and sports with evidence-based social facilitation techniques to create a comfortable and supportive environment. With a flexible structure that allows each camper’s individual strengths to shine, our campers have the opportunity to make lasting friendships and develop social skills.
