[quote=Anonymous]I would start by looking at the community and local colleges. Often the colleges will offer 1 week programs for subjects that may be of more interest to the late pre-teen/teenage group. I have seen robotics, video game design, stage production (not acting) etc. Also, the Smithsonian Museums, the Spy Museum and the Zoo all offer different summer programs which seem like they would interest the older kids a bit more. I would also create a list of possible new things to learn/explore – cooking classes, golf lessons, rowing lessons or sailing lessons (trying to think of sports that are a little less team/typical sports). You may want to approach this in a “let’s think about college applications and life skills” kind of way. [/quote]
