As of Oct 28, 2026, Enrollercoaster tracks 289 enrichment and STEM programs across NYC, from 19 providers including Brooklyn Bridge Park, NYC Parks, and West Side YMCA. 98 are open for registration right now, and the rest are closed or not yet reporting a status. 20 programs are listed as free. 32% of the programs with a published schedule meet on a Saturday or Sunday; the rest are weekday-only.
Prices. Across the 64 programs that publish a price, the typical (median) listed price is $208; most fall between $130 and $310, with a full range of $35 to $1,491. Providers list prices differently — a single class, a month, or a full term — so compare the registration pages, not just the number.
Ages. Programs run from birth to 18½. The most options are for school-age kids (57), teens (53), and preschoolers (19).
Where the open spots are. By neighborhood, the most enrichment and STEM programs with open registration today are in Upper West Side (24 open), Ridgewood (12 open), Washington Heights (6 open), Long Island City (6 open), and Greenpoint (6 open). Neighborhood counts change daily as providers open and close sessions.
Enrichment and STEM classes in NYC cover coding, robotics, science labs, engineering with LEGO, math, cooking and languages, most of them for school-age children and a smaller set for preschoolers. Sessions are typically 60 to 90 minutes, run as a weekly term or a school-break camp, and are hands-on: building, experimenting or making something each session. Class sizes are small, materials and laptops are usually provided, and many programs sort children by grade rather than age. A trial class or a single-week camp is the easiest way to test a subject before committing to a full term.
98 of the 289 enrichment and STEM programs we track across NYC are open for registration as of Oct 28, 2026. Status is read from each provider's own registration system every morning.
The typical listed price is $208, and most of the 64 priced programs fall between $130 and $310. Prices are as published by each provider and may cover one session, a month or a full term. 20 programs are free.
Programs run from birth to 18½. The most options are for school-age kids (57), teens (53), and preschoolers (19). Every listing shows its own age range.
Today the most open enrichment and STEM programs are in Upper West Side (24 open), Ridgewood (12 open), and Washington Heights (6 open). These counts are recomputed every morning.
The largest by number of programs are Brooklyn Bridge Park (102), NYC Parks (91), West Side YMCA (25), Ridgewood YMCA (13), and Staten Island Children's Museum (12). 19 providers in total have enrichment and STEM programs listed across NYC.
Yes — 88 of the 271 programs with a published schedule meet on a Saturday or Sunday. Use the day filter above the list to show only weekend or weekday classes.
