Summer! The very word conjures images of sunshine, popsicles, green grass, cool water, and friends. It is a time to recharge our internal batteries and reconnect with the world. It can also be a time when everyone, young and old, can be reminded of how delightful it is to learn. Outside of the stuffy classroom, the world is brimming with things to spark curiosity. Science summer camps provide the perfect complement of summer fun and delightful learning. Choices for camps abound, from horse camps and sailing camps, to marine biology camps and basketball camps. Whichever camp is right for your camper, you can expect your child to benefit from the following: Physical Activity Summer camp gets kids moving. Running, swimming, jumping, riding - camp involves action. Independence Children learn to be more independent at summer camp. They need to manage their own time, fulfill responsibilities on their own, and take care of their personal needs without mom and dad. It is a safe place for kids to learn to make decisions and experience the consequences. Social Skills Camp is a place that requires a new set of social skills. Living for an extended period of time with roommates is a new experience for most kids. They will learn to share jobs, to respect others' privacy, to resolve disputes, and to use effective communication. They will also get a heightened sense for how their own choices can affect others around them. Learning Science summer camps offer a wonderful opportunity for children to learn. The learning choices will depend upon the camp you choose, but every camp offers the chance to learn. Your daughter might learn a love of art this summer or discover a passion for hiking. Your son might find a talent for woodworking or develop a love for the sea at a marine biology camp. The possibilities for learning are endless! Make summer camp part of your plans this year. Your child will benefit from the experience for a lifetime.
