How to choose summer camps?

Show me another question in this topic

Anonymous asks:

It's that time of year when I'm receiving information from the city, my child's school, clubs and others about summer camps. There are so many choices - it's a bit overwhelming. Beyond picking camps based on my child's interests or hobbies (which worries me a bit since those could change before summer rolls around), how else can I whittle down these summer camp options? I'll obviously look at price and safety, but what else? How do other parents pick and plan their child's summer camp choices?

Instead of choosing a summer camp based on your child's interests/hobbies, consider sending your child to a summer camp that will provide them with learning and life skills that will not only benefit them in school, but will enhance their overall quality of life! SuperCamp is an academic enrichment camp for middle school and high school students that is fun and enriching at the same time. What more could you ask for in a summer camp??
