Four to seven is when a first week of camp starts to work: old enough for a day away from home, young enough that the group should be small and the day not too long. These are the summer camps that suit kids this age, from sports and riding to language day camps, and we only list a camp when the organizer says it takes kids this young.
A language day camp run entirely in English or German, at a dance school in Pasing. Mornings are for outings; afternoons turn to games, stories, crafts and themed activities that get kids speaking. Groups are split by age, so younger children play and draw while older ones discuss more complex topics. Each week ends with a short show where kids present what they learned to their parents.
Field hockey camps run by HLC Rot-Weiß München at its own club grounds beside the Westpark. The youngest get short day camps of games and first stick skills, while older groups stay over for a few days of training on the club's floodlit artificial pitch.
Club players train alongside kids trying hockey for the first time, so no experience is needed.
An open stable in Langwied, on Munich's western edge, where the horses and ponies live outdoors in a herd all year. Kids spend the day doing everything a stable needs: feeding and caring for the ponies, dogs and chickens, then leading, riding, vaulting and groundwork. Trail rides and swimming with the ponies are part of the week. Viktoria plans each week's theme and posts the details about two weeks ahead.
A holiday day program run by the sports club ESV München on its grounds beside Nymphenburg Palace Park. Kids are split into age groups and rotate through coached workshops: ball games, parkour, acrobatics, crafts, percussion and nature projects, with an outing day each week. In the last hour of the day, kids pick their favorite workshop or play freely. It suits active kids who like trying a bit of everything.
An English day camp at the Hochschule Fresenius campus in Schwabing-West, run by Kids Camp America. Kids spend the day in English: games, sports, songs, activities and outings, in groups by age. Everyone goes home in the evening, so it suits families who want English practice for their kid without an overnight camp.
LILALU is a Munich holiday program run by the Johanniter charity. Kids pick one discipline for the week, from aerial silks, airtrack and parkour to magic or street dance, and train with professional artists in groups of about 20. The week ends in a show the kids host themselves, in costumes from a 6,000-piece wardrobe. One-day workshops suit kids who can't do a full week.
