Sleepaway Camp Guide: The Best Overnight Camps in the US
Parents talk about where to send their kids to school an awful lot, but you don't hear nearly as much planning about where to send the kids to summer camp. But weeks of sleepaway camp can have a huge impact on kids.
Since sleepaway camp is one of the most powerful and formative experiences a kid can have, finding the right program is really important. There are specialty camps that focus on arts, sports, science, etc.—but regular old general interest camps where kids spend time communing with nature are great, too.
