[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are these all day camps for childcare, or just camps for fun? That would make a difference. [/quote] OP here. Sorry, what is the difference? My elementary school aged kids don't have school during the summer and I am looking for something fun, that's not a logistical nightmare and will not break the bank to keep them occupied.[/quote] I think PP meant do you need full time, every week (childcare) vs you're a SAHM looking to enrich the summer. I was a SAHM but knew the kids would benefit from a week or 2 of camp so I picked things based on their interests and what friends were doing. Bonus points for a good lunch program so I didn't need to pack and more bonus points if it was a fit for all 3 kids. I wasn't looking for they'd enjoy for multiple weeks, could splurge on price since it wasn't many weeks and prioritized learning something (sport or whatever) over a general camp. My only advice for OP is that your camp needs change from year to year. It's kind of hard to find the balance between fun and affordable. And your kids' temperament matter a lot. Some kids love camp. Some don't, so you really need to make sure they're going with friends and it's a good fit for them. [/quote]
