Summer Camp Ideas for Children

School is rapidly approaching the end and what are your plans this summer? If you are like my family, we vacation during the spring or fall so the summer is wide open. My children are just now getting old enough to participate in summer camps. The reason I personally like the idea of summer camps, is because I like for my children to stick to some sort of schedule and, honestly, get out of the house for a few hours.

Since my family is so new to summer camps, please let me know what summer camps you have attended and I will look into them. I want to have an ongoing summer camp list that people can use and find informative.

Vacation Bible School

I know one isn't necessarily a camp, but my kids have always enjoyed it. Each year my son and daughter have participated in our local Vacation Bible School. My sister-in-law gets her children to participate in multiple each year. I love it because the kids are entertained through songs and crafts, I get a break for a few hours, but I also get to meet people in our local community. Most churches don't require you to be a member for ages Kindergarten through 5th Grade. Check with your local church to see what they have to offer. We have even found some that will let pre-school aged children to attend. This is also my favorite option because they are usually free as well.

If you are local, I found some additional resources:

Do you send your child to summer camp? Why or why not? What are some summer camps that your child has attended?
