How to find the best Peterborough kids’ camp for your child(ren)

Use the filters above to focus on the activities that your child is most interested in. You can also choose your price range. Once you filter your shortlist, you will want to reach out to camps using the function in the pages linked to above. Here are some suggested questions for you to ask when you reach out to programs on our site, along with things you may want to consider.:

How is the schedule divided between different activities? Consider how much focus there will be on activities that your child particularly enjoys.
What is the ratio of campers to counselors and leaders? This may be especially important for kids who require more attention.
How does discipline work within the camp? Consider any anecdotes they share, and how their discipline practices will affect your children, whether they have a tendency to be unruly or if they are especially sensitive.
What qualifications and training do camp leaders have? Ask about their education as well as certifications like First Aid training, etc.
What accreditations do they have? Camp accreditation can be a sign of a good camp—although there are many great camps who do not pay the cost to be part of one of these organizations.
Is before and after care available? Consider how the entire camp schedule fits with yours—for the entire run of the program.
