There are quite a few options for expat children during school breaks. International schools like Seoul Foreign School, Dwight, Chadwick, and KIS run their own summer programs and camps that are often open to non-enrolled students, covering academics, sports, arts, and English-language activities. English academies and franchises also run holiday intensive programs. For more immersive or fun options, there are English camps, sports camps like soccer, swimming, and taekwondo, coding and STEM camps, and music or art camps advertised through expat communities. University-affiliated and city programs sometimes offer Korean-language and culture camps for foreign kids, and the Global Centers and multicultural family support centers run affordable seasonal activities. Facebook groups like Seoul Expat Parents and local parenting cafes are where parents share and review current camps, and YMCA and some churches run day camps. Decide first whether you want academic, language-immersion, or active and fun, then check international school summer programs and expat parent groups for this year's schedules, which usually open for registration in spring.
