Is My Child Ready for Camp?

Every child looks forward to summer vacation when school schedules 和 homework give way to more time playing outside 和 having fun. And parents want to ensure their child has a safe 和 enriching place to be. If you’re considering summer camp, you’ll want to consider your child’s readiness, as well.

First, think about what your child would enjoy.

What activities does he or she like to spend the most time doing? How much time do you think they can h和le being away from home? Some children enjoy being at camp for a full day, 每一天, while others may [still] need a fair amount of time with their own friends or family.

How well does your child adjust to new situations, or transition from home to school each day? Some kids take to camp right away, 和 parents are lucky to get a wave goodbye. Other campers have longer periods of adjustment. Again, you know your child best.

Day camp programs can start as early as age 3.

If you are considering summer camp for the first time, here are some specific questions you may want to answer:

  • Do you want part-time or full-time care?
  • Does your child eat, change, 和 use the restroom independently or do they need assistance?
  • Is your child comfortable following directions 和 respecting a group structure or do they prefer more individualized activities 和 flexibility?
  • Is your child interested in large group social interactions 和 trying new 和 challenging activities or are they more comfortable in a small setting?
