With summer around the corner, school exams getting over, many parents must be thinking of getting their kids involved in some kind of extra-curricular activity.

Instead of a regular visit to their native place, parents would want their kids to learn something new, something unconventional. We bring you one of the better options for kids in the form of Adventure Summer Camp.

Parents can enroll their kids to Summer Camp for following reasons:

  • Self – Confidence: Research states that 95% of kids develop self-confidence by going for a summer camp. Self-confidence is gained just by getting over feelings such as homesickness. When the kids realize that they have overcome homesickness by themselves, their confidence builds up, they act independently and are ready to mingle in the crowd by taking active participation in adventure activities.
  • Self-Recognition: When the kids are in summer camp, they are not monitored by their parents or teachers as it happens in school or home. The self-realization of the fact that “I am responsible for my own wellAnchor-being” helps them to act freely and enjoy the summer camp activities.

Interaction with other kids and working in a group for completing a task, help kids develop their social skills.
