Enrolling your child in a summer camp has great advantages for parents and children. The summer season is approaching and it is a great opportunity for our children to continue their training and have fun.
This time of the year is very special for Natuaventura.com and we work for many months to offer the best summer camps, end-of-year trips, language trips, excursions for schools and much more.
Our team spends a lot of time preparing the schedules, organizing the groups, preparing the instructors and other things, in order to enjoy these camps and trips in the safest and most enjoyable way possible.
In the last decades, the boom of summer camps has been overwhelming, and that is not surprising, considering that summer camps are a great contribution to the education of our children, and allow them to get to know themselves while they have fun. That is why we have the following 6 reasons to enroll your child in a summer camp.
1. It teaches them to be independent.
One of the reasons to enroll your child in a summer camp is that it allows them to develop independence. When they leave the family environment, children and teenagers acquire more autonomy. Even though they have the help of professional instructors, they have to do things by themselves that parents usually do for them at home, such as clear the table, prepare their backpacks, pick up their clothes, etc. These actions, no matter how small they seem, contribute a lot to the personal development of the children and their independence.
2. Coexistence.
One of the best things they will learn in a camp is how to live together. Children can coexist with other boys and girls of different ages and with different preferences. For this reason, summer camps usually set up from the first day a series of rules of coexistence, and teach them the importance of learning to interact with others in a positive way.
3. Values.
These are the fundamental basis of summer camps, and their activities are constantly working on the teaching of important values for life. Group activities and workshops are designed to collaborate with each other, promoting respect for others. The education taught in the camps is based on civility, demonstrating to the participants that their actions can affect their group mates. Gender and racial equality is also one of the fundamental values that will be instilled in a summer camp. Also, values related to respect for nature, healthy habits and responsibility are the foundation that guide the summer camp program.
4. Learning.
Another reason to enroll your child in a summer camp is learning, since the child will be in a completely new environment from the very beginning, full of new activities and new sensations that they will learn during their stay at the camp. Also, through games, dynamics and workshops, participants will acquire new skills to strengthen their natural abilities, or to learn new skills.
5. Make new friends.
Children and teenagers will meet new people at summer camps, and will have the opportunity to create great bonds of friendship with their group mates. Together, they can enjoy unique moments such as swimming in a river, talking at night with their best friend, enjoying a sunset, etc.
6. Enjoying nature.
Finally, participants will be in direct contact with natural environments and learn how to take care of them. The activities they can do in nature are very varied, such as walking in the countryside, bathing in rural areas, walking around the farm, etc. As they do these activities, the importance of being interested in the environment will be promoted, and they will receive the tools to take care of it.
