What is the best age to send my child to summer camp?
This is a very personal question that only you can answer. Camps range from campers entering 2nd grade to campers entering 11th grade. Sometimes younger children feel more comfortable at camp if they have an older sibling or friends from school there. The American Camp Association offers a useful checklist to help you decide if your child is ready for camp. Please click their link to view the checklist. http://www.campparents.org/righttime.
