Summer camp has *got* to be one of the biggest memory makers for children and teens.
I would agree! I never really attended a formal summer camp as a kid. Did you?
I did! And growing up in Texas, that included *riflery*! That wouldn't happen now. It's wild though the *kinds* of camps there are now - for programming, language learning, math.....so many choices!
I think it's great to keep kids occupied during the summer, especially today when so many kids become inactive and don't even venture outside.
I agree. And it's way to easy for kids to get sucked into screens. There's actually a lot to be said for the old school, out in nature, hiking and canoing and campfire type of camp!
I loved the OLD SCHOOL way of doing things. My kids were always involved in competitive tennis so they spent their summers playing tournaments and training.
That's awesome! Did they always take place here in the US...or any structured, supervised program in other countries?
