As most children start getting prepare to attend summer camp programs, most parents still don\'t understand the importance of their kids getting involved in summer camp activities. Summer camp experience is a great way to build a child\'s social skills, communicative skills, and other variety of skills that will have a positive impact in the life of the child now and in the future. Some of these skills developed or learnt during this summer vacation or camping may play a vital role in the adult life of the child. Here we would be looking at some benefits of allowing your child to take part in summer camp.

1. Develops social skills
This is one of the significant importance of summer camp for kids. Here, the children learn how to interact with each other and work as a group or in-pair. The kids also learn how to build new relationships and also manage conflicts. With these skills, the child grows up to become a better adult with strong leadership and better character as noted by James Spearing, YMCA senior vice president of youth development.

2. Encourages physical activities
For your kid to remain healthy, it is important that they exercise often and mostly the outdoor kind of activities. Summer camping provides them with the opportunity to take part in so many sporting activities to stay healthy. MindAhead.com summer camp programs provide children with the opportunity to take part in the traditional way of exercising and keeping fit. Some of the activities your child will be exposed to while in the summer camp includes skipping, swimming, ball throwing, tag games and lots of other games that will keep them excited and healthy.

3. Summer Camps builds self-confidence
Research has shown that over 70 percent of campers developed self-confidence while at camp. Being away from home, the child develops a feeling of independence and the opportunity to make their own decisions. This allows them to assess the impact of their choices and that helps in building self-confidence, sense of personal pride and developing opinions on things around them.

4. Developing new skills and eases the summer slide
Most summer schools now offer fun and enriching activities to kids while in summer vacation. Now children are allowed to get involved in activities such as artworks, cooking, outdoor events and STEM activities which involves science, technology, engineering and mathematics.

5. Reintroduces children to nature
