[quote=Anonymous]My DH and I are feds who work in person. He works in person exclusively. Our elementary aged kids do:

early morning swim team at our pool with a day camp until 4 pm. They have swim and tennis plus other fun recreational games then free time in the pool. We have a friend who is a teacher pickup and we get after 6. She is already at the pool with her children and we carpool for travel soccer during the school year.

my sons go to a day camp that is from 7am-6 pm from their after care provider. It is so easy and perfect for working parents. They go swimming 2x a week and 2x a week on a field trip (sports event, outdoors, museum, aquarium, etc.)

My older son does some specialty camps and I flex my schedule. I do the drop off and then stay later and the other families do the pickups. Both sons do a few camps where we pay for extended day or before care. My older son goes to a few camps next to my office where I can drive and pick him up and then he just reads in my office until I go home. I hotspot if it's a really terrible schedule (hey sailing camp).

He goes to sleep away camp and we pay for the bus there and then my DH and I use time off to pickup. [/quote]
