Value of Summer Classes and Camps for Kids
Summer fun is exciting but in this kind of heat, outdoor fun is dangerous, and so sitting at home or planning for playdates to keep the children busy is a smart and safe idea. But how long will you handle a group of kids daily? There needs to be an alternate Mom-rescue option, to save her from the frustration of dealing with a bunch or even a single naughty one. During such times, Summer classes offer the best rescue options, and also keep the kids busy enough that they learn extracurriculars and get tired and dose off easily at night. Besides the traditional summer coarses such as Swimming classes (ofcourse, i wonder what the empty swimming pools are doing now because of the water scarcity), Music training, Spoken English, Pottery and such, there are quite some new courses to bring the new waters in...
Some courses such as Horse riding, Chess training, Fun Math exposure help the kids build confidence to deal with life's different phases...and short term courses such as CPR, First Aid training, small Wood workshops to build toys and such, Etiquette and Ethics classes offer the kids lessons of Selfhelp and educate the, of their Social Responsibility etc. In some western countries, there are Summer classes to train for young adults in new born sibling care and a new pet training. Some societies organise Summer camps for kids and Young adults, inviting them to spend few days away from parents and family, at a Summer cottage, teaching them to be brave when parents are away, during such camps, they teach to make friends with new kids, sleep on their own without parents being around, etc...
Teaching kids simple culinary skills is also good selfhelp and 'Help Mom' ideas through cookery classes, baking classes, easy sewing classes...in the United States, they teach Preschool children how to handle a pair of scissors and cut paper and use Glue correctly for a specific reason inorder to prepare them for homework and hobby crafting. Some kindergarten schools and social clubs offer Grooming classes for Young adults, teaching them Simple Housekeeping manners, HomeSafety classes, Fun gardening sessions to help parents and also behavioral methods for self discipline along with Religious values. Are you also looking forward to find such fresh ideas for Kids' Summer classes that really help your kids and you instead of just extracting money from your wallet !!
