Let the Summer Begin, Check Out the Ultimate Summer Camp Guide Now

There’s nothing like camp season. The buzz. The warm days. The label-maker living on your kitchen counter. It all means one thing: your kid is about to grow in ways you can’t quite measure yet.

In our Ultimate Guide to Summer Camp issue, we’re here to help you find the right summer fit for your family. From the big benefits of day camp to easing those first-day jitters, we’re talking about the emotional side of camp just as much as the logistics. Because yes, packing lists matter — but so do confidence, independence, and learning to try something new.

We’re spotlighting programs for every age and interest:

  • Sports-loving kids (p. 14)

  • Tweens/teens craving independence (p. 20)

  • Jewish Camps (p. 28)

  • Sleepaway first-timers (p. 34)

We’re also tackling real-parent questions — budgeting (p. 22), siblings (p.32), and how camp helps kids unplug(p.38) in a world that never does.

However your summer looks, camp has a way of sending kids home a little taller, a little braver, and full of stories that bring smiles. And honestly? That’s the good stuff. Here’s to a summer they’ll never forget.
