[quote=Anonymous]OP, your child is a homebody. He mostly just wants to stick with what is known, and comfortable. So, outdoor adventure camp may never be for him, nor a different camp every week for several weeks. But he might be coaxed into first, attending a good camp that has a homey feel (probably indoor, maybe art or music?) and is basically the same structure for several weeks, and that he can return to every summer. He might enjoy just one after school class; not a bunch of different sports but one activity that goes year round. You can tell him that he has to do TWO things every year -- something physical and something service or religion oriented. He can choose or you will choose for him but he has to do those two things. Then help him find some things that do not have a lot of changes, are highly predictable.[/quote]
