Lights Up Musical Theatre

Schools are also offering performing arts camps this summer with a similar philosophy of focusing on setting their kids up for success by teaching them theatre skills while instilling self-confidence in these young performers.

I love this because this way the kids are able to learn the hows of acting and singing and dancing before performing in front of an audience while still having parents and guardians attend to watch and encourage the progress they are making in developing their performance skills.

Academics

Who said that STEM was only sought after during the school year? Definitely not kids who are into building Lego® robotics. Daedalus Enrichment Programs offers programs where kids can create their own ideas with constructive learning and exploration and have built up a strong reputation for doing so. Another camp worth mentioning that offers a very unique blend of STEM and environmental studies is at Petit Architect. Here kids build their own constructive creations while learning about the relationship between architecture, interior design, sustainability, and the environment.

Play Based

We would like to end off this story with a whole new world, or rather an 1800 square foot indoor city, at Kidtropolis. As a licensed early childhood educator who is a huge fan of dramatic play I can safely say that this level of imaginative play is nothing I have ever witnessed before and offers kids unlimited opportunities to play, explore and learn all at the same time. At Kidtropolis summer camps, kids enjoy a whole schedule of fun activities, experiments and games offered within this amazing environment! Read more about Kidtropolis in Strengthening Family Connections on page 7.

Happy camping and be sure to check out our Summer Camp Guide for a full list of summer camps to choose from this summer!
