These days it's easy to find camps that combine both education an entertainment for children.
Summer camp is an important experience for children for a variety of reasons.
Emotionally it helps develop maturity and independence and socially children build friendships that last years. Here are some thing you'll want to keep in mind when you're choosing a camp. Don't rush putting your children in overnight camps. At six they might be ready for a night or two. If you build gradually they will comfortably be able to handle 2 weeks away by their pre-teen years.
