How to Choose the Best Summer Camp Program in Eatontown

Summertime is right around the corner… where will your kids be spending their time?

Why not give them an experience this summer which will last a lifetime? At summer camp, your kids will have the chance to learn new things, make new friends and gain confidence in their own abilities.

What to look for in a summer camp program

A good summer camp will encourage kids to explore new things, teaching them a lot about themselves. When kids are successful at trying new things, it feeds into their self-confidence and impacts their drive to learn even more.

Questions you can ask to help you find the right summer camp program for your kids include:

• What philosophy does your program follow?
• What is unique about your summer camp program?
• In what ways will my child be challenged?
• How do you motivate the kids to learn something new?
• How will my child’s progress be measured and how will they be rewarded?
• What happens when rules are broken?
• How is conflict handled?

Voyagers’ Community School Summer Camp Program

Summer camp program for kids in Eatontown

We’re not your everyday brand of summer camp.

Kids who attend our summer camp program are provided the technology, guidance and freedom to explore what interests them… which is the secret sauce in motivating kids to learn new things!

Our core philosophy of learning through play is ongoing at our STEAM summer camp.

What is STEAM camp?

Steam summer camp means…

• Science
• Technology
• Electronics and Engineering
• Art
• Machines and Math

One of the most exciting things about STEAM camp? The opportunity it gives kids to explore things they may not have the time to explore during the regular school year.

For example, if your kids love to watch stop motion videos online, they may want to create some of their own. But they probably haven’t had the chance to try their hand at it.

When they go to our STEAM summer camp program they’ll have ample opportunity to explore stop motion videos, animation, building – and testing rockets – and so much more!

Child led learning

Our schedule for summer camp is designed to be fun and flexible. Children between the ages of 5 to 14 can attend from one day, to all nine weeks, or anything in between.

They can move from one creativity lab to another, or explore our outdoor classroom. Our counselors are always available to help and to ensure that everyone is learning and having a great time.
