The Denver area has a variety of summer activities. Summer camps offer a way to bridge the gap between mid-May and August for working parents. They can also provide ways for kids to expand their mental and physical horizons. Camps provide a great way to teach the kids independence, make new friends, learn new skills, and entertain kids while parents are at work.
Summer Camps in Colorado
Academic day camps, sleep-over camps, or camps teaching kids camping and outdoor skills are all available in our wonderful state of Colorado. No matter a child’s interest in science, math, the outdoors, or the arts, there is a camp that will give kids a chance to learn new things this summer. Plan summer now for a seamless flow from spring to summer, as spaces are limited.
Following this link from the Denver Post will offer tips on preparing kids for overnight camps. http://www.denverpost.com/summercamps . While the idea of having your child spend a week away from home may seem scary at first, it can do wonders for building confidence for kids who are properly prepared.
