  1. A<\/strong> focus on fun<\/strong>. Summer is a great time to make new friends, try new things & catch up on being a kid. Don’t stress about academics or performance – give your munchkins a couple months to giggle.<\/li>\n
  2. Proper supervision<\/strong>. Ask about counselors’ ages, training and background. Some camps staff high school kids, others college graduates, other exclusively full-time staff. Make sure to ask about the counselor-to-camper ratio as well – the younger your child, the more even\u00a0the ratio should be.<\/li>\n
  3. Variety<\/strong>. Little ones thrive on exposure to different activities. Look for a camp that has a mix of sports, crafts, indoor & outdoor activities.<\/li>\n
  4. Safety<\/strong>. Facilities should be clean & well-maintained and the camp office should ask you for an authorized list of people to pick up your child.<\/li>\n
  5. Scheduled downtime<\/strong>.\u00a0 It’s 9,0000 degrees outside and we all need a little rest. Our kids are no different. Make sure their day has some built-in low key time.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
