  1. What is your child interested in?

One way to make sure that a sleep away camp is the right fit is by making sure they have some kind of activity or program that your child is interested in.

This is the perfect opportunity to see all of the sleep away camp facilities, cabins where he or she will be sleeping, and explore the surroundings. While looking at pictures of the camp and taking an online tour is great, you won’t truly know if it is the right sleep away camp until you visit it. BUT hurry, father time is creeping up on you!

  1. How far away should the camp be from home?

This question is one for you and your child. What is the ideal distance from home that you and your child can agree on?
