Considering summer camp this year? Investigate the activities on offer before you choose a summer camp or summer camp program. Summer camp activities for school age children should include 1) Outdoor adventures. Sports are fun, but summer camp should also present opportunities for unstructured play in a natural setting. 2) Crafts. A true sense of accomplishment comes from creating something by hand. 3) A chance to meet children outside of your child’s own classroom and neighborhood. If your child can leave summer camp with a few brand new pals, you’ll know you’ve chosen well.
