Join our family
of camps
As a family run camp, we understand how hard it is to find quality programs for our children during the holidays. That’s why we created KCA – because when kids are supported, encouraged and cared for, by their teachers and their peers, their confidence grows, their curiosity returns, their enthusiasm shows no bounds, and neither does their potential.

Upcoming Camps
Don’t just learn
English, live it
Our day camps are designed to bring the English language to life with adventurous experiences that get our campers out of the classroom and quickly bonding and speaking with one another. We do outdoor activities every afternoon and an excursion each week. Our most popular excursions include swimming centers, bowling, zoos, science museums, blacklight mini-golfing and more!
Activities for every
camper
At KCA we offer a huge range of afternoon activities – from baseball to mask making, American football to beaded jewelry. One of our most popular activities is our book club, where campers choose an English book they all read each afternoon andthen discuss it with one another . It is a great way to unwind at the end of a busy day at camp.
A focus on
teamwork
We cannot stress enough how important it is that each child who comes to camp feels at home. That is why we promote teamwork and cooperation during every lesson and every activity. Each group has a name, a chant, and creates a secret handshake so that they have a family to join each day at camp.
A typical day
Full Immersion English Language Camps for Kids
Our English day camps are perfect for children aged 5 – 12, at all levels of comprehension – from complete beginner to native speaker. We are currently offering our English Day Camps in Frankfurt, Munich, Berlin, and Dreieich. Every year we welcome thousands of campers from all over the world who play, sing songs, create art and perform drama – all day and all in English. We are a family run camp and that’s why we’ve designed them to be as flexible as possible. You can book one week at a time, or for the entire holiday. You can book just the mornings, just the afternoons, or all day, or with extended hours early and late. You can book with peace of mind knowing that your child is at one of our camps, being cared for by professionals, learning, playing, and living English.
Each morning, our professional staff of native English speakers guides our campers through a fun curriculum of cooperative group games and hands on projects, all focused on a daily theme. Each afternoon, the children are in charge and get to choose from a selection of exciting camp activities led by our creative and energetic personnel. When your child joins KCA they join a team of open-minded people from a diverse range of nations and cultures and they will be sure to forge lifelong friendships by the time they leave. We’ve built all our camps so that each child can reach their full potential and are confident that our campers will have the experience of a lifetime and return home not only with improved linguistic skills, but also unforgettable memories.

KCA is based on the belief that the fastest, most effective way to learn any language is to be completely immersed in it. Most everyone has traveled to a new country and experienced the enormous progress they make when surrounded by a new language. At KCA our kids don’t just learn English; they live it.
Yes! KCA is not an English school. It is modeled after an American/ English Day Camp and allows kids from all over the world — who love speaking English, miss speaking English, or just want to meet English speaking friends — to do just that. Our camp is active, instructional, safe, and most important — fun for everyone.
Yes. Our program is play and project based and our goal is to make the English language fun.
With our ratio of one group leader to eight children, each child gets the support and encouragement they need to thrive at our camp. KCA is always active, instructional, safe, and fun and “beginner” children make the MOST progress when immersed in English at our camp.
Yes! KCA offers a full day program from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm. Campers can also join for just the English morning sessions: 9:00 am – 1:00 pm (with lunch included). or just the afternoon activities from 1:00 pm – 5:00 pm (after lunch).

A While groups sizes vary from camp to camp KCA always keeps a ratio of 1 group leader to 8 campers.
At KCA we don’t learn English; we live it. This is why our camps are attractive to native speakers and learners alike: we play, sing songs, do sports, create art, and perform drama — all day, all in English. We believe this is the most natural way to learn any language. There are no workbooks or grammar sheets at KCA. There is interaction, cooperative group games, projects and activities.
Morning English lessons are thoroughly planned so that children at all levels of English comprehension will enjoy them. These lessons are planned by certified English as a Second Language teachers and are play and project based. Learners absorb new English grammar and vocabulary by being immersed in the program while native speakers simply enjoy the cooperative games and team based projects we engage our campers in.
KCA offers kids the chance to plan their own afternoons so they get to do what they want to do! Upon registering you will receive an email containing our activity selection form. You and your child can then choose from a choice of six activities each day! Having kids engage in the planning of their afternoons allows them to personalize their schedule and maximizes the fun and learning potential at KCA.
Yes! A hot meal is included in the price of each session. If your child has specific dietary needs, please detail them on the application form.
