Kid’s Camps—The Acting Camp Experience

Find the Right Camp for Your Young Thespian

If your child has shown an interest in theatre, acting or performing for others, an acting camp can give them the opportunity to have fun and develop a whole set of skills to help them, both in an acting career and in life. Many acting camps bring in working actors, people who are getting paid to perform on television, in films and on the stage. Working with these individuals can be the opportunity of a lifetime for your child.

In addition to acting experience and skills, your child can also reap other benefits from the camp experience. Educators and psychologists have long argued that the camp experience offers a unique environment to help young people develop skills that will benefit them for life. They learn to work cooperatively with others and to take responsibility for themselves. Because the camp experience emphasizes inclusiveness and effort, campers can also gain confidence and build independence. The activities at camp frequently aid in the development of problem-solving skills, as well as self-reliance and self-esteem.

Kid’s camps are no longer a place where only the wealth can send their children. According to the American Camp Association, approximately 90% of their accredited camps provide some type of financial assistance to campers.
