6 Ways to Choose A Summer Camp

1) Physical Education:

Teaching children the importance of health and wellness through physical movement at an early age can encourage them to live an active lifestyle as they grow. Summer is the ideal time of year for parents to take the opportunity to ensure their children attend a day camp in South Jersey where they can learn through physical and active play. Parents should make the most of this opportunity by choosing a summer camp that will help children learn physical discipline, improve coordination and balance, improve confidence and self-esteem, and further develop fine motor skills.

Physical education can be implemented in camp through structured lessons in swimming, gymnastics, parkour, tumbling, and cheerleading. The Gymnastics and Cheerleading Academy of Cherry Hill offers flexible sports camp options where kids can engage in structured activities that encourage children to further develop their physical prowess. Our trained and experienced staff offers campers the opportunity to take swimming lessons, gymnastics and tumbling lessons, parkour and ninja training, cheerleading classes, and archery lessons in our 12,500 square foot air-condition indoor facility which sits on three acres of fenced in property, ensuring kids get plenty of time inside and out.

2) Extracurricular Activities:

In addition to lessons, parents want kids to have unstructured fun and playtime to further develop children’s social skills and interests. Super Star Summer Camp has plenty of activities for campers to play on including, our mini-golf course, arts and crafts area, 30 foot slip n’ slide, moon bounce, zip-line, laser-tag, playground and sandbox, gaga pit, and large sports field.

3) Session Length and Price:

Summers can be hectic, as parents not only need to plan around their work schedules but family vacations and summer events can interfere. Further, impromptu vacations from camps in South Jersey to nearby beaches mean that parents want a flexible attendance schedule and local access to highways. Accordingly, parents need to keep in mind session length, attendance, and price when comparing camps. Coupons are incredibly helpful to ease the cost of camp attendance and we encourage parents to contact camps to see if any special offers are available. Super Star Summer Camp offers 2, 3, 4 or 5 day full day camp options for weekly sessions. Further, our Junior Star Campers (ages 6 and under are offered half-day options to ease the introduction of little ones into school-day hours.

4) Meal Planning:

Parents know that it can be hard to pack temperature-safe lunches for picky eaters. It isn’t sanitary for refrigerated meals to sit in the warm sun all day and not all kids want sandwiches for lunch. Super Star Summer Camp makes lunch and snacks easy for parents. We have refrigerators for campers who choose to bring their lunch and microwaves to warm meals, if needed. This ensures that lunches are kept at proper, sanitary temperatures and gives parents the flexibility to send a variety of meals for lunches. Some camps offer meal plans and snacks, but variety can be limited and pricing can be expensive. Super Star Summer Camp offers affordable catered lunches for campers during the week and Pizza Friday for campers. Catered lunches cost between $3.00 to $5.00 dollars per meal and orders can be customized and placed in advance or upon arrival for the camp day.

5) Flexible Registration:

Some parents prefer have peace of mind and register for camp early, while others need to wait to determine their summer schedules. We officially opened enrollment March 1, 2016 for those who choose to reserve their place early. While we encourage parents to register early to hold their child’s place, we understand that not everyone is in this position. For those who are unable to determine their child’s camp attendance until early summer, or would only like to attend specific days and weeks, we offer the option of registering at any time throughout the duration of camp.

6) Camp Tours and Open Houses:

With so many options for day camp in South Jersey, it can be hard to choose which is the right fit, especially if families have never been to the camp location. To ensure that the camp you select is the right fit for your child, we encourage families to call their top choices and see what the possibilities are for private tours and open houses. Super Star Summer Camp offers private tours, on appointment, and currently has scheduled three open houses for families to learn more about us. Our Open Houses are scheduled for Saturday, May 20, 2017 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Open Houses are the perfect time to come and meet our staff, tour our indoor and outdoor facilities (and check out our swimming pools, ninja warrior obstacle course, mini-golf course, archery field, sports field, playground, outdoor trampolines and tumbling area, and more!), ask questions about the camp day, and learn more about what we offer. Parents can call or check out our website to learn more about when our open houses are scheduled.
