Our Kids deserve Camp Now 😎 💙 💛 So many great nuggets from this American Camp Association article - all educators and parents should take a look at, including of course Summer & Auxiliary Directors (and SPARC, Summer Programs and Auxiliary Revenue Collaborative members 😂)! "The Missing Norm: Phone-Free and Play-Full Summer Camps" - while the article references overnight camps - day programs build their schedules and cultures to create similar environments that are strive to be: 😎 "Tech-Free" 😎 "Novelty-Full" - camp activities are novel, creative and fun! 😎 "Mentorship" opportunities with cool camp counselors and staff supporting trying new activities and challenges 😎 "Deep Communities" - where members find connection, friendships, and shared experiences Summer Programs - 'celebrate “reasonable risks” as experiences to be embraced, not avoided. Seen through this lens, it’s easier to understand why it’s a positive that some of the following happen to every camper: 💟 They are homesick and overcome it, teaching them that they can thrive outside of their parents’ shadows. 💟 They have a dispute with a friend, are upset, and eventually craft a resolution. 💟 They try something new and fail. And fail a few more times. And then succeed through perseverance. 💟 They try something and fail without an eventual triumph. We will not always win or succeed. Children should know that they can survive those situations, too. 💟 They embrace an activity that is a little scary and overcome that fear, thus fostering courage and confidence." 84 days until Sidwell Summer begins... let's continue to reflect on how we can make Summer 2024 the best one yet while helping address some of these important issues! Cheers to all of us that have the opportunity to make an impact on so many amazing children and young adult staff this summer! Incredibly important work - and know it is appreciate and so crucial! 💕 #independentschools #summerprograms #auxiliaryprograms #enrichment #leadershipdevelopment #professionaldevelopment

MY BLOG POST ON YOUNG CHILDREN AND THEIR QUESTIONS 👪 From about the age of 4 children become questioning machines. What is this? What is that? Why is the sky blue? Why is that man fat? Whether it is annoying, adorable or both at once – the reason young children end up asking so many questions is because they are forming their own vision of the world. In this forming process, they draw on the adults around them to fill in the gaps, and paint a better picture of life. This might seem obvious, but what isn’t obvious is that the quality of answers and responses given can impact the children in different ways. In the below post, we take a look and see how we can improve the answers we give our children by maybe asking more questions. Enjoy! https://lnkd.in/g9c6byKy More in bio!
