American parents spend a collective US$3.5 Billion on summer camp each
year, there are countless reasons behind that with the most important reason
being the fact that summer camp can be a meaningful experience that helps kids
learn important life lessons and have fun along the way. According to
researchers, summer camp makes a positive difference in children’s lives.
New Generation Learning Center offers a summer program for ages 2 -4 and
Summer Camp Morris County, NJ
for ages 5-10 years old. Space is limited, siblings of the currently
enrolled students will be placed into the program first.
Ways Summer Camp Makes a Difference:
Independence- A summer camp provides kids needed time away from
family and regular friend groups. These experiences give them the required space
to gain independence. Your child will gain the confidence that they can take care of
themselves and also contribute to something bigger.
Relationship Skills- A great camp experience involves making new friends,
offering kids chances to practice the skills needed to build and maintain
relationships.
Appreciating Differences- Building and maintaining relationships requires the
ability to understand and appreciate differences among people and great camps just
do that. They provide a space where kids can interact with people from different
backgrounds and worldviews. Camps tend to bring together all kinds of kids and
caring adults, providing an excellent opportunity for young people to see the
world differently than how they might at home.
Connection with Nature- There are no two ways about the fact that summer
camps have connected kids to nature for about as long as kids have been going to camp and great
camps will continue to connect kids to nature through nature-based programming
and simply being outside.
Kids get to be themselves- In this highly connected and stressful world where
we are presently living in, there has been an increased interest in being more
authentically engaged with others and our world. In a great camp, your child
will get to play in non-virtual worlds and interact with friends face to face rather than
through a device. Most importantly, kids get to be kids at camps- there cannot
be any other reason more compelling than this, it highlights the importance of
the camp.
