3. Summer camp brings to mind
long days spent running wild
and free in an outdoor
environment.
4. While it is true that kids spend a
lot of their time engaged in
physical activity, it is also
important to know that summer
camp programs are designed to
spark a child’s imagination.
5. In addition to the traditional
camp crafts, kids are
encouraged to develop their
creative abilities through
activities that fit a variety of
interests.
7. Today’s kids are inundated with
experiences that limit their
ability to use their imaginations.
For example, schools are often
so focused on teaching
academics that they cut
programs such as drama and
art.
8. Unfortunately, this puts kids at
a disadvantage because an
imagination is essential for
developing the creative skills
that lead to success in
adulthood.
9. Imaginative play opens up
doors for them to learn valuable
lessons that build upon critical
skills such as problem solving
…
10. … and it also serves as an
outlet for relieving stress that
frees kids’ minds so that they
can focus on developing their
talents.
12. Summer camp programs tend
to use a fairly strict schedule to
keep kids busy every minute of
the day.
13. However, there are blocks of
time built into that schedule
where kids are able to let their
imaginations run wild.
14. Special programs, such as
dance and drama, are provided
as options for children to fill
certain blocks of time.
15. Camp counselors and other
staff members use these
programs to encourage kids to
stretch their imaginations as
they participate in creative play.
16. During camp activities, counselors
and other members of the staff
reinforce the development of
imagination by offering kids
positive encouragement for their
successes.
17. Performing for other campers
and their families on special
days reaffirms the importance
of developing a kid’s
imagination.
18. Free periods are also built
into camp schedules that
allow them a chance to try out
new activities in the interest of
building their imagination.
20. While at camp, kids still enjoy
traditional summer camp
activities such as macramé
and jewelry-making. Yet,
there are some new activities
that have been added to the
mix.
21. For example, Lego robotics
mixes science with creativity so
that kids can make moving
sculptures using their own
imaginations.
22. Puppetry and balloon animal
classes give kids with an
interest in volunteering a way to
put their imaginations to good
use by performing for others.
23. Open-ended art, such as
pottery and painting, also allows
kids the chance to create a
physical piece that reflects their
creativity.
24. It is also important to note that
many of the best chances for
kids to build their imaginations
are spontaneous.
25. When a kid is encouraged to
let their imagination run free,
the world opens up with
tremendous possibilities.
26. Not only will imaginative play
offer immediate enjoyment
but it also helps kids build
skills with long-lasting
benefits.
27. Whether they’re making up
camp songs with friends or
focusing on creating a
beautiful piece of art for mom
and dad, summer camp is the
place to fully unleash their
imagination.
28. Let your kids experience the art
and creativity activities at
Maplewood Summer Day
Camp.
29. Experienced staff will keep your
child both safe and busy with
arts and crafts, games, water
sports, gymnastics and more.
