[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't give in to shyness.[/quote] It's not "giving in" to shyness to find a camp that isn't overwhelming so that the child feels comfortable not being shy. To the OP, I don't know Virginia so can't give specific recommendations, but what worked best for my introverted kid was finding a camp with long sessions. Too many camps around here have one week sessions to accommodate families' travel schedules, but it worked better for my child to go to camp with the same campers/counselors for several weeks (as many as you can find) in a row. Having older counselors (college students and up) was also more successful for us, as was a camp that grouped kids by age, so that my young child was not with kids much older.[/quote]
