The Value of Great Summer Programs for your Children

6/9/2017

0 Comments

 
If any at all you can find a great summer program for your child, you will not be disappointed. And sure enough, there are many at this time of the year. Institutions and community organizations have for decades been doing an excellent job during summer breaks, keeping kids busy when parents can’t engage them enough because of work or other challenges. From the very first time you are able to trust your child to attend a camp, you will both be hooked and there’ll be no turning back. There is so much to gain.
 
Benefits of Summer Programs to Children

  • Building life-long skills – Program organizers have invested a lot of resources in making their programs exceptional and enjoyable for kids. Great programs are carried out for kids to develop their sporting abilities, express their artistic talents and become adventurous. With very talented instructors or camp leaders, the right facilities and equipment, kids are left with lifetime abilities which they may never have developed at home.
 
  • Conquering fears and building confidence – Summer activities such as those offered in a camp setting take children out of their comfort zone and allow them to try new things. No matter what apprehension your child feels about doing things at home, he is more willing to shed his fears as he interacts with peers and as he learns to trust his leaders. Whether it is the challenge to sleep outdoors, slide over a waterfall, or jump from heights, children are encouraged to challenge themselves and handle discomforts. In programs like these, your child builds confidence as he or she learns that it is not so much about the competition, but more to strive to succeed.  Don’t be surprised if your child starts behaving a bit more mature in his actions.
 
  • A break from technology – You may understand the agony when you are trying to get a response from your child who is too taken up with the phone, computer, TV or other gadget to even notice. Being away from home and engaged in summer activities demands their full attention and provides a welcome break from the technology. Camp organizers usually require that kids do not take their cell phones or other gadgets with them. This allows them to discover the real world and learn to interact with real people.
 
  • Developing social skills – Many persons can remember that they learnt certain social etiquette at camp. Parents often are not able to spend enough time teaching their children about good eating habits at the dinner table. Similarly, a child may not know to mind his or her manners when in company. Kids often develop these skills in summer camp programs and from interacting with others. Besides these, kids learn good communication, develop sharing and caring spirits and can resolve conflicts while working together.
 
  • Becoming active - Summer programs get children active through swimming, sporting, hiking, jumping, climbing and numerous physical activities. These are opportunities for them to keep in shape while away from regular school gym sessions. Kids love the outdoors but without summer camps, they are often cooped up in the house unengaged. Summer programs include glorious opportunities for them to explore and discover the natural environment. So see their delight as they catch and examine a toad or capture a butterfly.
 
  • Friendships are formed – Camp allows for great community bonding in which children share, communicate, laugh and talk together from the first day despite not knowing each other. Being involved in activities make it so easy to make friends. This often lasts a lifetime.
 
Give your child a lifetime of memories. Send him or her to a great summer camp and from the first day you will discover the value in doing so.  Consider TSL Adventures.
