101 bene� ts of summer campChildren and teenagers who go to summer camp

don’t return home with just good memories. According to a recent study by Canada’s University of Waterloo, these young people also experience remarkable levels of development in several areas. Here are some statistics that were revealed by this study:

• Summer camp is a good remedy for shyness. Sixty-fi ve percent of the young people studied improved their ability to make friends and resolve con� icts.

• Emotional intelligence is refi ned. About 69 percent of participants had an increased ability to recognize and analyze their own emotions as well as those of the people around them.

• Summer camp is excellent for improving self-confi dence. Some 67 percent of the young people felt more independent and had more confi dence in themselves after attending camp.

• In the age of global environmental awareness, summer camp can play an extremely useful role. In the study, over half of the young people learned how to better protect the environment and to act appropriately with regards to it.

• Camp helps children be less sedentary. Being in a group and having easy access to the outdoors increased children’s interest in physical activity. At the end of their camp, 61 percent of participants felt more interested in sports.

Even if children have already participated in a few summer camps, the experience is always benefi cial. Each new camp brings its share of challenges and positive growth, and that contributes to their development. And best of all, it’s fun.

How to prepare the kids for their � rst summer camp This summer, your children may be going away to

summer camp for the very fi rst time. And maybe it’s also the fi rst time you’ve been separated from them for so long. Everyone’s probably feeling a little apprehensive. Here are some tips to help everyone prepare for the day of departure.

• The best way to reassure children is not to worry. If you have specifi c concerns, call the camp and ask all the questions that are bothering you. Some camps hold open house days; they are

a great opportunity to check out the location, meet the counselors and get some reassurance.

• To build your children’s enthusiasm and interest, talk positively about the camp and ask them about the activities they can’t wait to try. You can also tell them stories about your own experiences, if you ever went to summer camp.

• If your children have never slept away from home, it would be a good idea to let them have a trial run. A weekend at their grandparents will likely be a comfortable initiation, and it will prepare them for the few nights they’ll soon be spending away from you.

• Don’t promise your children that you’ll bring them home if they feel homesick or if they don’t like the camp. They could very well test your promise at the fi rst hurdle. It will also keep them from making a genuine e� ort to adapt if they know they can leave whenever they want. Instead, encourage them to persevere. They can decide whether they want to repeat the experience once they’re back home.

Above all, put on your biggest smile when you say goodbye to them at the camp. It will let them enter into their experience without worry that you’re in distress. After all, they’re going to be having an extraordinary adventure!
