- Eureka! A Science Camp For Girls
"Eureka!" That's what many parents say when they find a camp for their daughter that focuses on science.
That may be the cause of excitement as more than 1,700 girls, ages 11-13, will take part in a variety of engineering and science-related projects at the weeklong EX.I.T.E. camps across the United States, Canada, Latin America, Europe and Asia Pacific, sponsored for the eighth year by IBM. EX.I.T.E. stands for EXploring Interests in Technology and Engineering. - Help Finding The Right Camp
From basketball and horseback riding to the performing arts and cheerleading, there are many different types of camp to choose from. Traditional summer camp is still, by far, the most popular choice for youths of all ages and day camp for teenagers is on the rise. But how do you know when your child is ready to go to camp and how do you find the best match?
Camping experts at the YMCA of the USA offer tips to help parents choose the best camping experience for their child this summer: - Awareness And Cooperation Equal Safety And Fun When Families Visit Parks
Many parents are finding that with a little bit of care and planning, fun and safety can go hand in hand when they visit a theme park with their children.
"Parents and guardians can provide great examples for children of all ages," said Charlie Bray, President and CEO of International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions (IAAPA). "As these adults exhibit safe behavior in a fun way, children will also find motivation to practice safe habits at every theme park, water park, museum and other attractions they visit." - Getting Children Organized For Summer Camp
For most children, summer camp is what you might call a more-and-less experience: They may have made a lot more friends while away, but they usually return home with a lot less of the clothes and other personal items than they originally packed. Blame it on the camp laundry or just childish carelessness, but that tends to be what sleepaway camp boils down to.
So, what's a parent to do? The obvious answer: Label everything.
