Every child I know loves summer vacation, but each one of them has a different idea of what the “best summer ever” would include. My kiddos would both love to be completely active from morning until night—swimming, making up new games/clubs, climbing, dancing, doing art projects, playing tag, having picnics, and just being outside. My friend’s son would enjoy playing sports all day, and my daughter’s best friend would love to sing, dance, and perform for anyone that will watch.
As a parent, I’d love for my children to come home from summer camp laughing and raving about their amazing days. An added bonus would be if their camps were convenient to get to, have flexible options for drop-off and pick-up, and include meals in a safe, fun, friendly place.
Is it all too much to ask for?
