Dinosaur Summer Camp

July 18, 2011 | Leave a Comment

What boy doesn't love dinosaurs?

I am sure you have heard me ramble on about how much my oldest son loves dinosaurs.  He is only 5 years old but he is so passionate about them.  He reminds me a lot of how I was as a kid.  I used to get super passionate about everything I got into and it just took over my world.

At the start of Summer, we saw an ad in our paper for a Summer day camp that we could not pass up.  It’s put on by a company based in New Jersey called Roving Nature Center Day Camp and they offer a few different options.  The one we signed Harrison up for is called Jurassic in the Park.  How perfect is that.  A week long Summer camp (half days) for 4 – 6 year olds that focuses entirely on dinosaur fun.  Today was his first day and he was just so freaking excited to tell us about it at.  I can’t wait to hear about how much fun he has the rest of this week.  Best $100 we spent so far this Summer.

Have your children ever gone to day camp? How did they like it?

Basic Principles Of Good Parenting

Here some basic principles for good parenting:

  1. What You Do Matters: Your kids are watching you. So, be purposeful about what you want to accomplish.
  2. You Can’t be Too Loving: Don’t replace love with material possessions, lowered expectations or leniency.
  3. Be Involved Your Kids Life: Arrange your priorities to focus on what your kid’s needs. Be there mentally and physically.
  4. Adapt Your Parenting: Children grow quickly, so keep pace with your child’s development.
  5. Establish and Set Rules: The rules you set for children will establish the rules they set for themselves later.  Avoid harsh discipline and be consistent.
  6. Explain Your Decisions: What is obvious to you may not be evident to your child. They don’t have the experience you do.
  7. Be Respectful To Your Child: How you treat your child is how they will treat others.  Be polite, respectful and make an effort to pay attention.
