Many parents are searching for ways to keep their children physically active, learning, and having fun during holiday breaks. Kid Castle supports the importance of quality camp programs and how they can promote academic success and a healthy lifestyle.
Even after the school doors close for the holidays, there are plenty of opportunities for children to learn new skills, embark on new adventures and have lots of fun. Holiday camps can bring all this and much more.
If you’re a parent considering a holiday camp for your child, our guide lists all the benefits you can expect and reasons why it can be helpful in your child’s development.
1. Teamwork
Holiday camps focus on a wide variety of physical, interpersonal and character-related skills that your child will draw on long after camp is over.
For example, competing in team-orientated tasks, group craft activities or academic focus groups. We always ensure there is a skill-building focus.
These team-based activities will look to build a collaborative mindset which leads to the promotion of sharing and working together. To foster good teamwork, kids need to develop strong communication skills, problem-solve, and make tough decisions. These are all vital characteristics needed in later life, and a holiday camp can be one of the best ways to develop them.
2. Becoming more independent
At holiday camp, there will be plenty of focus on developing self-reliance; something a child will hold onto into adulthood. A good level of independence taught amongst the international teachers, who teach responsibility and independent thinking. It can help your child discover who they are and speak for themselves, without mom or dad to fall back on.
5. Building Self-Esteem
Learning new skills, achieving goals and being a part of something productive builds one vital characteristic – self-esteem.
Every personality skill mentioned here is placed at the forefront of Kid Castle holiday camp instruction. Painting something from nature, winning at the camp’s games, or saying your first full sentence in a new language; they’re all activities that breed confidence and deliver a boost in self-esteem.
Solid self-esteem is so vital to your child’s development. With more confidence to try new things, ask questions, learn from setbacks and express themselves more fluently.
