Tips for making the most of your child's school holiday club
School holiday clubs can be a great way for children to have fun, learn new things, and make new friends. But how can you make sure that your child gets the most out of their time at camp?
Here are a few tips:
Choose the right camp
There are many different types of school holiday camps available, so it's important to choose one that is a good fit for your child's interests and needs. At SuperCamps we offer both Multi-Activity camps and specialist courses at select venues. If your child has a particular interest that they want to explore further, it’s worthwhile booking them onto a course that will help them learn and develop.
Talk to your child about their expectations
Before camp starts, talk to your child about what they are looking forward to and what they are worried about. This will help you to address any concerns they may have and to make sure that they are prepared for camp.
Pack the right things
Make sure that your child has everything they need for camp, such as a lunch and snacks, a water bottle and anything else they might need, for example swimming gear.
Drop off and pick up on time
Being on time for drop-off and pick-up is important for both you and your child. It helps to set the tone for the day and when camps are busy makes it a smoother process.
Communicate with the camp staff
If you have any questions or concerns about your child, be sure to communicate with the camp staff. They are there to help make sure that your child has a positive experience.
Encourage your child to participate
One of the best ways for your child to get the most out of camp is to encourage them to participate in all of the activities. This may mean trying something new or stepping outside of their comfort zone. But by participating, your child will learn new things and make new friends.
Be positive about camp
Talk to your child about the positive aspects of camp. This will help them to have a positive attitude and to be more likely to enjoy their time there.
Ask your child about their day
When your child comes home from camp, ask them about their day. This will help you to learn about their experiences and to see if there is anything you need to be aware of.
Follow up after camp
After camp, talk to your child about what they liked and didn't like about camp. This will help you to choose the right camp for them next time.
By following these tips, you can help your child to have a positive and enjoyable experience at school holiday camp.
