A Newly Revised Summer Camp Planning Guide!

In the spring of 2012, I wrote a book titled: Summer Camp Planning Guide for childcare business owners. Since I’ve published that book, I have planned many successful summer camps and gained more knowledge about how to effectively plan for a Summer Camp.

I was recently inspired to revise and update my Summer Camp planning guide. Furthermore, in the 2nd edition of my Newly revised Summer Camp eGuide, I share: an updated list of Summer Camp Marketing tips, newly added planning pages, there’s a revised list of summer camp themes, inspiration for planning a camp with your vision in mind along with sample forms.

Have you started planning your summer camp? Do you need some fresh insight on planning for a successful summer camp? Don’t know where to start?

My newly revised summer camp planning guide will help you to plan for a successful summer camp, provide you with lots of fieldtrip ideas, planning ideas and lots of safety insight.

This is the time to start planning and marketing your summer camp. Download your copy of my Summer Camp planning Guide today!

Happy Summer Camp Planning,

Fun Summer Camp Activities

I can hardly believe that June is already here! In fact, it seems like I was just writing my business goals for 2013 and here we are half way through the year.

This week, I thought I would share some fun Summer Camp Activities with you to provide you with more great ideas  for the kiddos enrolled in your Summer Program or Camp.

In fact, I love it when the summer comes, because it usually means; more kids, lots of warm weather, fun field trips and lots of fun Summer Fun!

Here are my Top 5 Summer Camp Activities:

  1. Painting while wearing Sunglasses. This activity is so cool. Simply invite the children to wear sunglasses while they are painting!
  2. Painting with Flip Flops. Provide the children with old flip-flops, construction paper and paint. Instruct the children to dip their flip-flops in the paint to make flip-flops imprints on the paper.
  3. Summer T-shirt Art. Simply give each child a white t-shirt, provide the children with paint and seashells to make seas shell imprints on their t-shirts. Be sure to paint the words: Summer Camp!
  4. The Tiny Tot Travel Station.  I borrowed this idea from the mailbox magazine about 10 years ago and I still implement it in my program today. Simply, provide the children with luggage, travel brochures, a telephone, luggage tags to practice writing skills, add clothing to practice packing skills, post travel deals on the wall and to enhance the children’s imagination;  encourage the children take a trip to their favorite place by boarding their pretend airplane. Be sure to make a big sign that is Titled: Tiny Tot Travel Station!
  5. Beach Ball Fun Outdoors. Be sure to take beach balls outdoors to have lots of Summer Time Beach Ball Play!
