Day Camps Knowledge Base
What are fun inside activities for day camps? I work at a summer day camp. There are about ten kids and we are running out of indoor games and crafts to do in the mornings. What are some fun ideas? The kids are ages 6-10, so they have a lot of energy. We have been doing a lot of arts and crafts, but I would like to do something more active and I think the kids would too. I am open to any ideas you have. please help.
When do summer day camps usually start? I would like to work at a summer day camp but i might not be back from vacation this summer until july 12th. Do i have good chances of being hired while they may be in session?
Does anyone know of any summer day camps for DC inner-city kids? I was originally planning on going to Egypt this summer, but that plans seems to have fallen through. However, I still need something to do this summer to occupy my time. What I really want to do is work with the kids in DC, in the inner-city. I would rather work with younger children, but anything would be fine. If anyone could give me the number of a day camp or an email address of someone who works at one, or anything like that, please post it here... Please don't give me day camps in the DC area (eg, Montgomery County or Fairfax County) because I would really rather work with the kids who live in the inner-city. Thanks in advance :)

Where to find a dog walker or dog day camp for a Pit Bull in Detroit Metro? I have a 7 month old pit bull named Kina. (She is all kisses) I work two jobs and I am looking for someone to either walk her on Fridays or take her to a day camp for that day every week. I rush now to let her out at 5 when I get off one job but I have to be at the other at 5 30, thankfully they are very nice and let me come a little late if she takes a while. I love walking with her, and playing. She gets plenty of excersie the other days of the week. I'm just having trouble because day camps that i've found dont take "bully breeds" even though she's not even close to aggressive. I don't know how the dog walking works either because I don't completely feel comfortable giving someone a key to my home and letting themselves in while l'm not there.
Which trail should I take for a 5-day Arizona camping trip? I live in Decatur, Georgia, next to Atlanta, and am planning a solo 5-day camping trip in early October within 100 miles of Flagstaff. My criteria are: --water --seclusion --much beauty --strenuous is OK, maybe preferred --bonus: good side trails, especially historic ones. I’ve looked at 3 AZ trail books, & narrowed my choices to 5: Fossil Springs, West Clear Creek, Secret Canyon, Bell, and Kelsey-Dorsey. (BUT, I'm VERY open to other suggestions.) I’m an experienced backpacker, with little experience in the West. Last fall, I spent 3 days with a buddy at Phantom Ranch--down North Kaibab, back up Bright Angel. 1st time at G.C. & 1st AZ trip ever. I understand that some of these 5 are popular, but secluded on weekdays, especially in Oct. True? I'd appreciate any suggestions you have--the more broad and detailed, the better. Thanks so much.

Summer Camps - overnight & Day Camps & my 8 year old daughter? My daughter is a 2nd grader and will be turning 8 the end of March. She wants to attend a camp this summer- and when I suggested a Day Camp- she was not happy with that- she said she really really wants to go to an "over-night" camp. I'm fine with that- but does she really understand it's a whole week without mom and dad???? She gets homesick when she goes up north for 3 days with her great grandparents! I remember going to 'overnight' camps- but i was in 5th grade when i attended my first one. Sure I got homesick- isn't that part of the camp experience? However I don't want to pay 600 dollars for her to call me begging me to come get her after being there for 3 or 4 days. Any advice or suggestions? Am I just being a paranoid mother? Thanks in advance! Also- please share your summer camp experiences with your children with me please!

What are some ideas for activities for school aged children involved in summer day camp? This will be for a small town, so museums, amusement parks, and the like are out of the question. Some field trips will be offered to the local swimming pool, library, and fire station, but I need ideas for indoor activities that are outside of the normal scope of coloring and crafts. The program is called "Safarri", though it does not necessarly have to pertain to animals, just adventure.
