Activity Spotlight: Court16 🎾
Court16’s summer tennis camp is a Monday-through-Friday program ( in NYC) for kids ages roughly 4–12. Choices include half-day (9 a.m.–12 p.m. or 1 p.m.–4 p.m.) or full-day (9 a.m.–4 p.m.) options. They organize groups by ball color/skill (e.g., Red Ball for ages 4–12 on 36-ft courts, Orange Ball for older kids with more experience), rotate courts frequently, and use weekly themed camps (e.g., “Wimbledon Wonders,” “Mind Over Match,” “Courts of All Kinds”) to keep things fresh and engaging for campers! Our own MomBrains team can personally vouch!

What We’re Working On📡
As we head deeper into summer planning season, we’re continuing to dig into the camps parents are actually talking about: what’s worth it, what’s overhyped, and where kids are truly thriving. Next week, we’re zooming in on programs that blend structure with flexibility (a sweet spot we know many of you are looking for), along with a few under-the-radar finds that surprised us. As always, if there’s a camp you’re curious about, or one you think we should investigate, send it our way. We’re building this alongside you.
Cheers,
Your Team at MomBrains
