Right now, parents are thinking about summer and so are we. On top on the priority list is summer child care. Fun summer day camps are being held at the resorts and attractions and offer some really neat programming that children will love. Camp activities include, golf and sports, art, museum fun, adventure and fun, horses and ranch fun, swimming, biking and more!
*We also recommend parents consider day camps even if you are cottaging the in these areas. It's not just for local kids. Summer day camp a great way to keep your child entertained in times of bad weather and it's a great way for them to make new friends while parents enjoy some quiet time as well.
