Kids Get MORE out of CampThe demands of the 21st Century
requires that kids become more fullyprepared for all of life’s
challenges. The latest research has shown thatcharacter skills like
curiosity, generosity and grit are even moreindicative of a child’s
future success than their IQ. To keep up, thegoals of education are
changing and teachers are moving away fromtraditional methods of
teaching and are bringing new and innovativeapproaches into the
classroom. Summer camps, like Camp Edmo andCamp EdTech, are also
continuing the development that happens at school andtaking on
these new learning initiatives as well.
At Camp Edmo and Camp EdTech, children participate in hands-on
activities,develop a love of learning and build the skills
necessary to thrive,communicate, collaborate, problem solve and
think creatively. EdventureMore’s one-of-a kind life skills
programs, The Edmo and EdTech Vibe Games,then promote and reinforce
these traits to prepare children for the future andput them on the
road to becoming happy and successful adults.
