[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you’re completely focusing on the wrong things here. Camp teaches them those skills and has people there to help. Also sorry but you’ll be lucky if she brushes twice a day. Flossing? What you need to focus on to see if she’s ready is how does she adjust to a set schedule she’s not used to, sleeping in a room with a lot of strangers, being away from home for multiple nights, needing to walk to different things in the dark w/ maybe just a flashlight? Food that might not be her favorite for 2 weeks, etc. don’t forget that she will grow leaps and bounds between now and when you drop her off. If you wants to do it, I’d sign up now before you miss the window. For what it’s worth, if you aren’t in a waitlist, you may have missed the window until next summer. 2 of my kids started sleep away camp at 6 and loved every minute of it![/quote] Thanks, I definitely signed her up. I went to sleepaway camp for the entire summer starting at 9. She was a day camper at this camp last year and loved it, so spent a lot of time at the camp facility - that's why she is so hard-pressed to go - she saw all of the evening stuff she missed out on .[/quote]
