Summer camps are a North American tradition. It's hard to imagine that there was ever a time when children were not trotted off to summer camp - sometimes against their wills - once school was over. The thought of sumer camp conjures images of canoeing, beautiful sunsets and campfires. Friendships are formed, memories made and the summer camp experience helps shape lives.
Camps.ca is proud to have become part of the experience of many people's summer camps, though our listings, our many articles and features and close involvement with camps we have had through working on our print magazine, Our Kids Go to Camp, for over a decade now. We're proud that many people search our site and await our magazine, making us a necessary part of their experience with summer camps.
If you are one of those parents in the process of sending a child to summer camp against their will, camps.ca offers advice on why other kids love summer camp. You can also consider how summer camp benefits your child's development at any age. Our collection fo summer camp advice is always growing, including dealing with homesickness at camp, how to keep out of your kids' way and so much more summer camp advice on the way to help your child have the best summer camp experience possible.
We also offer listings, of course. Find whatever summer camps you might be interested in, starting with day camps or overnight summer camps.
When searching for summer camp, we also urge you to check out our collection of summer camp videos, containing testimonials from kids and counselors detailing the many benefits they have received from spending time at a kids camp.
Summer camp seems like a tradition with no origin and one not likely to end any time soon. Maybe the very notion of children gathering together outdoors in summer for structured fun is just naturally human. No matter, we would love it if you bookmarked our site, shared it with your friends on Facebook, Twitter, Stumbleupon, etc., or just read and learn as much as you need to. Stay with us as we continue to build a comprehensive portal on Northern US and Canadian summer camps.
