If you are looking for a day camp for kids, there are so many different choices! You will need to consider how far away they are, how affordable, and what type of camp would be best for each of your children.

Summer art camps are great for a budding painter or sculptor to attend. They will let your child’s imagination soar, and if your child would rather sit and draw than run around outside, this might be the perfect fit!

Science camps are loads of fun for the inquisitive child. They can really learn a lot, and surprise you with their knowledge when the camp is over. This is a good way to get them interested in science for the upcoming school year!

Swimming summer camp can help teach your children water safety, or give them almost unlimited access if they are already accomplished swimmers. You will probably have to sign special waivers for these as well as other camps where there is an element of risk, but these activities are normally very well run and supervised.

Martial arts camps teach self discipline to children who might be a little out of control during the summer. Riding camps teach responsibility, and are perfect for drawing out shy children and giving them confidence. Both are excellent choices for either girls or boys.

Check your local churches for affordable summer camps. Some schools also offer summer programs, and you can check with your local boy and girl scout troops for additional activities. One way or the other, a summer camp could be the experience your child will always remember!

    How do I find a summer camp about dinosaurs? My son is ten, and dinosaurs is all he talks about, and he saw a show onn TV where the boy went to ‘Dino Camp’ and they looked for bones…anyone?

    I am looking into gymnastics camp for my daughter. The camp says we need to buy extra insurance for her since there is risk, but we already have good insurance - is this a rip off, or are we required to buy their insurance?

    I can see if we had no insurance, they might think we would sue them, but we have already signed all the forms saying we know she could be injured in sports.

    Can they exclude her if we refuse to buy it?
