Benefits of Summer Camp – Why your child should attend
If you attended summer camp as a kid you know what all the fuzz is about. Why not give that exciting opportunity to your children now? Children that attend summer camp benefit from new experiences, learn new skills, develop independence, boost self –esteem, discover new activities and so much more. According to the American Camp Association about 11 Million American children and adults attend camp each year.
Children that have never been camping get to enjoy all the benefits of being outdoors, roast marshmallows, singing and tell stories. Children get to meet new people, make new friends and learn about the diversity of people around them. Besides having fun at summer camp, kids will boost their self-esteem through activities and programs that encourages their participation. Learn to appreciate and respect their outdoor environment.
Summer camp was so much fun for me! That’s where my love for nature developed. I learned that I really did like playing in the dirt and exploring nature. I also learned the importance to conserve and protect nature and our environment. Plus I made new friends but most important I was more confidence and independent. Now as an adult and parent I encourage every parent to send their kids to camp.
