How to find the best camp for your child

Considering different camps? When picking any camp, here are a number of concerns and questions to keep in mind:

Consider safety and discipline matters

Be mindful of how safe the camp is for your child. For example, make sure that counselors all have police checks. Enquire about training in dealing with discipline issues. Ask the camp about their counselor-to-kids ratios.
Inquire about camp groupings. Ask how many kids there are per session or class. Are kids grouped by gender, age, or age range? Is there any separation of groups during the day? Be sure you know who is managing the group your child is in. Some parents may want to meet that group leader at least once.

Consider food and drink matters

What are camp rules and protocols concerning food? Are they mindful of allergies such as nuts and other products? Are kids allowed to bring their own snacks?
Are kids encouraged to hydrate on hot days?

Consider practical matters

When does the day begin and end? Be sure you know the camp’s hard and fast rules about drop-off and pick-up.
Consider any legalities with the camp. For example, do you have to sign a waiver? Should there be one? Ensuring that the camp is accredited is one way to cover many legal concerns.
Inquire about the schedule breakdown by specific activity. Consider how much your child will be able to indulge in some of his or her favourite games, etc.

Consider matters related to ESL and exceptional needs

What provisions are there for kids with special needs? Will this affect your child’s enjoyment of the camp? Are there going to be EAs or PSWs present?
