How Does Summer Camp Make a Difference

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.
