How Durham Summer Camps Help Children To Grow In Confidence

By Elaine Guthrie


The long summertime holidays are something all children look forward to with great anticipation. However, some of them will be stuck at home because their parents need to work. Many parents fret about their children being alone all day. Many towns and cities offer holiday programs, but these are not always feasible. In many cases, opting for Durham summer camps is the ideal solution for everyone concerned.

There are many benefits to be had by attending one of the many summertime schools on offer. Most importantly, all reputable operators place a very high premium on safety and injuries are relatively rare. The staff is experienced in dealing with children and they are supervised by highly experienced and reputable managers. Operators are required to be licensed, which means that parents can enrol their children knowing that they are in good hands.

Children attending these camping schools also benefit in many ways. They learn new skills and they gain experience in team work, communication and leadership. They also have to learn how to share and how to get along with a diverse group of people. Many children make life long new friends during these holidays. Children are kept occupied by a wide variety of activities and many find exciting new hobbies and interests.

There any many different types of summertime camps. Most of them concentrate on a specific area, such as art, sport or adventure, but some offer an interesting mix of different activities. Those that concentrate upon a specific field normally offer classes and activities led by specialists in that field. Children that are passionate about something very specific may therefore benefit from and prefer to attend these venues.

Finding the right venue is not all that difficult. There are several excellent websites that contain information on all the various venues, the programs they offer and the costs involved. Many sites offers facilities to communicate with the different venues, to make on line payments and to ask questions. It is vital to make sure that venues under consideration are properly registered and that they carry the required insurance.

There are also other criteria to consider. If the child has special needs, such as medical attention or a very specific diet, for example, it is vital to make sure that the venue is equipped for those needs. Parents should ask for references and if the venue offers an open day, they should try to attend, taking their child with them, of course.

Parents should not make final decisions without consulting their children. Many kids prefer to attend the same camp year after year, simply because they like it there and they often have friends that attend as well. If a child is forced to go to a venue they do not like it can easily lead to resentment, misbehaviour and an all out family fight.

Attending a venue that offers meaningful and fun activities are most certainly beneficial for most children. They learn how to make decisions and to be more independent. Better yet, they have fun and they get to know more people. This is infinitely better than having a child cooped up in the house or flat, unable to go anywhere.
