Virtual Summer Camps for Kids

VIRTUAL SUMMER CAMP FOR KIDS

(Bernart Hermant)

It’s already been a challenge for many parents to take on the roll of full-time homeschool instructor. And while some moms and dads are looking for a much needed break from the regiments of home education (and their children’s screen time), others are seeking solutions to keep their children entertained, social, creative, and on a schedule as we move into the summer.

Fortunately there are a number of virtual summer camps and programs available to keep your kids spirits uplifted, as well as DIY camp-inspired projects if you prefer something engaging but less structured.

Our recommendations include:
