Summer Camp at Kids Co. 2022

Let’s start with the obvious – summer breaks and jobs simply don’t mix. There isn’t a job in the world where a working parent can take 10 weeks off never-mind all the other break weeks throughout the school year.

For many grown-ups with kids, trying to figure out what to do for the whole summer break can be a stress-inducing time. Not only do working parents feel the pressure of giving their kids great and varied experiences, they feel the financial pressure of the high cost of those experiences.

For all kids, summer should be a time for play, play and more play. For many kids, over scheduling is the way of the world when perhaps, kids might actually prefer less scheduling and more time spent in unstructured and structured play. Enrolling kids in programs, like Kids Co., that weave reading, arts, science, exercise, etc. into play keep kids bodies and minds engaged and are FUN! This is important to help mitigate summer learning loss.

Summer can be a break for kids and parents – the fewer transitions, the better for kids and working families.
