[quote=Anonymous]I went to 1-2 weeks a summer from age 9-13. I loved it. I was a bit of a sensitive kid, and had some serious homesickness the first 2 years. I LOVED everything during the day, but as we finished dinner I started feeling sort of sick. I remember sleeping with my little stuffed animal INSIDE my nightgown so that there was no chance it would fall off my bed in the night. But I was so tired, I don't remember having a hard time sleeping. I just felt this dread for the hour or 2 leading up to bedtime for the first few nights. But I loved it. I think it was really good for me and how independent I became. My 9 year old is clamoring to try it, but I didn't get myself organized this year. So maybe next year she'll do her first week away. It will certainly be harder for me (and her dad) than for her![/quote]
