We condemn the aggression of the Russian leadership against Ukraine, its sovereignty and citizens. 🇺🇦
Our mission is to provide children and teens with an opportunity to learn and maintain Russian language while having a fun-filled summer camp experience.
Я спросила у Тристана: «Ну, как тебе в лагере, понравилось?» И он мне ответил: «Ты себе даже подумать не сможешь, как мне тут понравилось». Такое я услышала от сына первый раз. Спасибо огромное организаторам этой незабываемой недели. Для детей это подарок и воспоминания, а также дружба на всю жизнь.

ABOUT US
“Игра. Unplugged” Russian Language Camp is led by Irina Safonov and Tamara von Schmidt-Pauli along with a team of Russian language educators and enthusiastic parents, all native Russian speakers.
Our main goal is to immerse children in Russian-language environment filled with fun summer camp experiences. We are passionate about teaching our kids Russian and preserving the Russian heritage.
Does your child need to know Russian to attend the camp? Absolutely not! We bring Russian language to life for anyone 6 years and older with any level of Russian knowledge.
It all started in 2015 with a family-style summer day camp, where we learned Russian through playing games, visiting museums, pools and playgrounds, cooking traditional Russian food together, organizing debates, staging theater productions and playing trivia – all in Russian. With each passing year we saw the same smiling faces return while new ones joined us…and our Russian family continued expanding. Kids began asking their Russian friends for sleepovers and one of them suggested a sleep-away camp to really enjoy friendships and adventures together – all fully immersed in the Russian language. From this humble request, our overnight Russian Immersion Camp was born.
