3. When the weather turns
warmer, kids get excited about
spending time on the water.

4. Bumper boats are one of the
most popular activities at
summer day camp. Most parents
are familiar with canoes and
kayaks but seldom connect
water and bumper cars.

5. So, when they see the boats hit
the water, it brings big smiles to
everyone’s face! Bumper boats
are exactly what the name
implies.

6. Kids love steering them around
on the water while bumping into
their friends.

7. As you make your summer
plans, below are a few ideas on
helping your camper enjoy a little
bumper boat fun this season.

8. GET YOUR KIDS
COMFORTABLE IN THE WATER

9. One big reason why families
send their kids to day camp is
to provide them with an
environment where they can
step out and take safe risks.

10. Diving into a lake is intimidating
for many kids. Bumper boats
offer a gentle way to get
acclimated to spending time in
natural bodies of water.

11. And, since the boats are equipped
with fun water “squirters”, kids can
get wet without the pressure of
being fully submerged.

12. MAKE SURE EVERYONE
PRACTICES WATER SAFETY

13. Every activity at day camp is
carefully planned with safety in
mind. Kids learn all about water
safety when they climb onto a
bumper boat.

14. From putting on their life jacket to
wearing a seatbelt, they learn how
to respect the water and still have
tons of fun.

15. For added water safety, sign your
child up for swimming lessons.
Day camps offer swimming
lessons as part of the program.

16. Trained staff members are always
on the water with the kids to
supervise their bumper boat
adventures.

17. ENCOURAGE TEAMWORK
AND A SENSE OF COMMUNITY

18. or
Classic bumper boats hold two
or three kids at a time. They take
turns steering and squirting.
Everyone gets a kick out of
turning it into a team sport.

19. And working together is a great
way to encourage new
friendships. Bumper boats are a
form of open-ended play.

20. This allows kids to make up
games with their own rules
within the camp community.
Counting points for bumps …

21. … or hitting their targets with a
blast of water are just a few of the
ways kids turn this fun activity into
a friendly competition.

22. EXTEND THE FUN
WITH PARTY OPTIONS

23. Day camp gives youngsters the
chance to enjoy bumper boats
after school and during the
summer. But kids just can’t get
enough of this activity.

24. For this reason, you will find
that it makes the perfect activity
for any celebration. The joy of
bumping each other across the
water generates tons of laughs
and memories.

25. Whether celebrating a birthday
or winning a championship, it’s
a great way to highlight special
occasions. It also is the perfect
end to a day of team building.

26. When you arrive at day camp,
you never know what kind of
fun is in store. The look of
excitement on a kid’s face when
they first see a bumper boat is
amazing.

27. And their smile just gets
brighter as they steer their boat
across the water.

28. When it comes to filling those
summer days with new and
exciting experiences, everyone
should have bumper boats on
their itinerary.

29. Let your kids enjoy the experience
at Maplewood Summer Day Camp.

30. Experienced staff will keep your child both safe and busy with
arts and crafts, games, water sports, gymnastics and more.
