Do you have summer activity plans to get your kids out of the house and away from video games? The Fox 4 parenting expert gives us some ideas on choosing summer camps and programs that will help your kids engage their minds and beat the boredom blues.
Questions to Ask Your Child
- How did your child become interested in a summer program?
- How does your child feel about staying away from home for extended times?
- What does your child expect to do at camp?
Questions to Ask the Program
- What is the camp/program's focus?
- What is the background/education of the teachers/counselors?
- What types of programs and activities are offered?
- Can I tour the program before enrollment?
- Can my child contact me while at camp?
- How many kids and what age groups?
