There are camps for almost everything from math and science to horseback riding and football to those specializing in kids with disabilities. There are more than 8,500 day and resident camps in the country. Choosing one that is best for your child is a matter of knowing your options. Have them suggest what they would like to do best and present as many options as possible. Negotiate on what will make the best camp experience.
Kids stay for periods of time, from five days to eight weeks.
They sleep overnight and participate in a variety of supervised activities. Each child carries a tent and sleeping bag. Keep the cost of camp in mind. Look for a camp accredited by the American Camping Association. All rights reserved.
