Carefree rest, new acquaintances and useful skills — all this expects your child in the camp. The summer camp is the first experience of independent life. Psychologists consider that rest with age-mates separately from parents is necessary for the healthy child of 8-10 years. If you for the first time decided to send the son or the daughter to ""big life"", then there can be a number of questions.
Choice of the camp
For a start it is necessary to decide on the choice of the camp. Of course, good food and conditions of accommodation, but first of all are important, listen to responses of other parents and to wishes of the child. That the kid did not miss, choose thematic (for example, with development of a foreign language) or sports center. If you are afraid to release the child far from the house, then stop on the camp near the city in which you live. Then you will be able to visit the child, to take away him home if he got sick.
We collect documents
Receive the medical certificate in children's district clinic. It contains information on chronic diseases, an allergy, inoculations. In 3-5 days prior to departure it is necessary to give a mark about lack of rkontaktov with infectious patients. If in the camp the indoor pool, then additional analyses can be required. At a foreign trip the policy of health insurance is made out and also both parents have to certify at the notary consent to departure of the child abroad.
We give money
Money can be target (at an excursion), and can be pocket (on water, sweets or water entertainments). Upon purchase of the permit you will be able to get acquainted with a price at an excursion. Sometimes it is possible to pay them at once, acquiring the permit. The sum depends on the residence and age of the child. It is worth taking care of that money and documents of the child were handed over to the leader of group for storage in the safe. For video and the audio equipment, jewelry, hours, phone and other valuable things which are not checked the child and his parents is responsible. In many camps children are forbidden to take the mobile phone. For communication with parents stationary phone of the camp on which you can call is used. The head has to have your numbers for an emergency communication.
We pack a suitcase
Here the approximate list of things which will be required to the child in the camp:
- Documents (permit, medical reference, etc.). If necessary - the small sum of money;
- Except a big suitcase the bag is necessary less - with it it is possible to go to an excursion, to go to the beach;
