A glance at the benefits of sending kids to camps

Parents in Ottawa (like parents everywhere) want the best for their kids. Attending camp for the first time can be challenging for some kids. Parents understandably have many concerns, and it can be difficult to let go. But there are many more good reasons to send kids to camp. It's a quintessential part of a healthy childhood that helps kids grow in independence, self confidence and personal initiative.

Take a closer look at benefits of camp for Ottawa kids and teens.

Questions you might consider

Our Kids has worked with Ottawa camps for many years now. Here are some things we advise parents to look for and think about as they are choosing a camp:

Safety

Ask camps if counselors all have police checks. Do counselors have any special training in dealing with conflict resolution? How do they ensure that the camp environment is safe for every child within the camp?

Structure and organization

Find out how kids are grouped together during camp activities. Are kids grouped by age? Gender? And what is the ratio of counselors to campers? Can you meet with the group leader who will be spending the most time with your child(ren)?

Day-to-day camp environment

Be sure that you schedule pickups and drop offs as the camp requires. What are kids required to bring to camp? Where will the camp be held? Are there outings, and how are those managed?

These are just some of the many things you need to know
