What Are You Doing This Summer?

What is your family doing during summer vacation, and what are your kids ages? We camp, a LOT. It's cheap, the kids like it, we can bring the dog. It's win-win for us. We didn't camp at all last summer because the baby was so young. This year, I'M CAMPING! I have to get out of the house... and I don't want to waste another summer. We camp on (meaning, either on an island or on land right next to) the James River. Free place to camp? Oh HECK yes. My fiance's a little nervous about bringing the baby, now 17 months... my feel is, he's...

Summer Program for 4 and 6 Year Old

I am looking for a summer program for my two kids. They turn 4 and 6 (currently in Kindergarten) in May. I can find stuff for the 4 year old but I'm having trouble finding something for the 6 year old. I only work part-time so I don't want to put them in a full day daycare. My almost 6 year old is a shy girl that wouldn't enjoy a lot of the typical summer camps for older elementary kids.

Best Advice for Preparing 10 Year Old for Camp

My ten year old son is going to sleep away camp this weekend for the first time with boy scouts. (My husband will be there as well) I talk to him all the time since his was little about not letting others touch you or pressure you into anything. II am looking for other words of wisdom to prepare him to be on his own and best equipped with knowledge about potential bad people. I don't want to frighten him but also want him to be aware that this exists in our world. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
