More than nine million American children are spending part of their summer at a camp. They are swimming, playing sports, making music or learning to use a computer. Traditional American summer camps offer children a chance to play many sports outdoors. These camps may be in the mountains, in the woods or in a lake. Other camps teach activities like painting, music or computer programming. Children at all kinds of camps meet new friends, learn new skills and develop independence (自立).

Some children go to camp during the day and return home at night. Others stay at camps all day and all night. Most children who attend camps are between the ages of

about six and sixteen. Some children stay at an overnight camp for one or two weeks. Others stay at day camp for as many as eight weeks.

(B)

There are summer youth camps in most countries around the world. For some parents and children, summer camps have become a way of life every year. It is time for

them to make new friends and try different things. Most children can learn to do things themselves and develop the sense of independence. That can help them be confident and successful in life.

Of course, it costs money to send children to summer camps but some parents might have no time to be with their children over the holidays. For those parents who have to continue to work, it’s also a good chance for them to do things themselves.

Not only can summer camps be an enjoyable experience for children, but also they can give parents the chance to have more time for themselves. It’s a great way for mums and dads to take a breath.

Your children can get many skills such as learning languages, general practical skills, problem-solving activities and so on, or even social skills for children.
