TOP 10 REASONS WHY CAMP IS GREAT FOR KIDS!
TOP 10 REASONS WHY CAMP IS GREAT FOR KIDS!
10. Campers Spend the Day Being Physically Active
Children spend way too much time inside and most of that time sitting
down. Camp is walking, running, swimming, jumping, paddling, playing, hik-
ing, climbing and more!
9. Campers Gain Confidence by Experiencing Success
Camp helps build self-confidence and self-esteem by removing the
academic, athletic and social competition that shapes their lives at school.
With the diversity of activities and opportunities to succeed, camp is a real
boost for young people. There is accomplishment every day at camp.
8. Campers Gain Resiliency
The kind of encouragement and nurturing kids receive at camp makes it a
great environment to try new things, endure setbacks and try again. It’s
the perfect pressure-free environment to try new activities that may be a
bit fearful, a continuous part of life.
7. Campers Unplug
When kids take a break from television, cell phones, video games and the
internet, they rediscover their own creative powers and engage in the REAL
world, REAL people, REAL activities and REAL emotions. Camp is real!
6. Campers Develop Life-Long Skills
Camps provide the right instruction, equipment and facilities for kids to
enhance their athletic abilities, artistic talents and adventure skills. The
sheer variety of activities offered allows kids to discover and develop what
THEY like to do.
5. Campers Grow More Independent
Camp is the perfect place for kids to practice making decisions for themselves
without the constant guidance of a parent or teacher. Managing their daily
choices in a safe and caring environment, children welcome this freedom to
blossom in new directions. Camp helps kids develop who they are.
4. Campers Have Time for Unstructured Play
Free from the overly structured, overly scheduled routines of home, school
and athletics, life at camp gives children much needed time to just play!
Camp is a slice of carefree living where kids can relax, laugh and be silly all
day long. At camp we play!
3. Campers Learn Social Skills
Through the dynamic of camper groups, campers share jobs and
responsibilities, resolve disagreements, make group decisions, and learn
firsthand the importance of sincere communication. Camp builds teamwork.
2. Campers Reconnect with Nature
Camp is a wonderful antidote to Nature Deficit Disorder and the narrow
experience of modern indoor life. Outdoor experiences enrich a child’s
perception of the world and supports healthy childhood development.
1. Campers Make True Friends at Camp
Camp is a place where kids make their very best friends. Free from the
social expectations pressuring them at school, camp provides an easy and
silly no-pressure atmosphere for kids to make friends easily. All the fun at
camp draws everyone together; singing, laughing, talking, playing - doing
almost everything together. Camp creates friendships every day!
