I know I think I have all the time in the world to hit some of our family fun ideas or invite friends over but suddenly you look at the calendar and it's booked up.

Tips and a checklist to get Mom and kids ready for summer camp

For months, Moms have been planning and researching local summer camps, maybe even some overnight camp options, and now it's time to get the kids ready.  So, to help make a busy Mom's life a little easier I created a Summer Camp Checklist for Moms to help plan for your kids summer fun.  I also did a little research on how to mentally prepare your kids for summer camp, in case they are anxious about starting camp or going to an unfamiliar camp, and thought I would share this great article on Creating Happy Campers.  Even if you haven't lined up camps for your kids yet, don't panic, there are still plenty of camp options still open to keep the kids active and having fun. …
