During the summer while school’sout, kids are at greater risk for learn-ing loss and weight gain unless theyhave a game plan that includes learn-ing enrichment and physical activ-ity. Summer camps are a great wayto ensure children continue to growsocially, emotionally, cognitively andphysically, while learning skills thatwill serve them well in the comingschool year and beyond. It’s not tooearly to begin planning your summercamp options now.

Working with SEER, an indepen-dent research organization, the Y sur-veyed nearly 40,000 parents with chil-dren enrolled in Y camp programs.The survey revealed that 91 percentof parents said they agreed day campprograms helped their kids make newfriends. In addition, 81 percent saidthey agreed the program helped theirkids discover what they can achieve,while 86 percent agreed their child felta sense of belonging at camp.

Taking time to research summercamp options is critical to finding thebest fit for your child. Consider a campprogram that offers learning, explora-tion and achievement to help makeyour child’s summer the best ever.Here are some questions to ask whenselecting a camp:

1. Does your child want to attend

a day camp or a resident camp? Typ-ically, day camps are a child’s firstcamp experience that prepares him orher for overnight camps later on, butthere’s no rule that says kids must startclose to home. It all depends on whatyou’re looking for, and what’s com-fortable for your child. Most impor-tantly, you want your child to have funat camp! As a nonprofit committedto youth development, the Y offersmore than 1,800 day and 300 residentcamp programs. Y camps focus onthree areas proven to impact childdevelopment: friendship, accomplish-ment and belonging.

2. What camp size is best? Makesure your camp meets the recom-mended leader-to-participant ratio.For example, there should be a 1:10ratio for camps catering to 8 to 10 yearolds. Also, ask yourself how your childinteracts with peers. Some kids enjoylarge camps where they can makemany friends, while others do better insmaller groups, like a few dozen camp-ers, where there’s no fear of getting lostin the crowd.

3. Does the camp have qualifiedstaff? Selecting a camp requires trust-ing that the camp selects well-qual-ified young adults and trains them

Summer Fun 2015

When summer arrives, do you seeeven less of your kids than you did dur-ing the school year? Too many Ameri-can children, tweens and teens spendthose extra hours of free time indoorsplaying with technology, rather thanengaging in healthful activity outside.Even when you know where your kidsare, you may not understand whatthey’re doing with all those devicesand game controllers.

This summer, why not help yourchildren get excited about a healthyand fun time outdoors? You can makeyour backyard the neighborhoodhotspot that no kid can resist by pro-viding three key ingredients to a greatsummer: fun, food and friendship.

Fun in the sunTo compete with smartphones,

PCs, tablets and other digital devices,you need outdoor excitement - thekind that only water can provide.Installing a backyard pool may not bepractical for everyone, but a backyardwater slide is.

Easy to set up and use, a water slideis a cost-effective way to create out-door fun this summer. While parentsmay have mixed memories of fun andbumps from the water slides of theirown childhood, modern options likeH2OGO! backyard water slides offerthe timeless appeal of water slidespaired with modern technology to

provide a more comfortable experi-ence. H2OGO! slides feature the SpeedRamp, an inflatable launch pad thatcreates a smooth belly-flop landing atthe start of the superfast 18-foot slide.

Food for funAll that water sliding and other fun

activity is going to make kids work upan appetite. They’ll need fuel so theycan keep having fun. Look for fare thatis easy, kid-friendly and nutritious. Forexample, instead of serving high-fat,high-sugar ice cream, consider frozenfruit or fruit pops. Replace sugary, cal-orie-laden sodas with flavored water.For kids who crave crunch, replacechips with fresh-cut crisp fruits likeapples and kid-friendly veggies suchas carrots or cherry tomatoes. Youcan serve them with a variety of deli-cious, yogurt-based dips. Whip up anacho platter that incorporates low-fatshredded cheese, fresh salsa and leanprotein like beans or grilled chicken.

Friendship and funWith your backyard gaining the

reputation of the neighborhood hotspot for great food and fun, you maynotice some new faces showing up.Encourage children to engage ingames that can help them get to know

• Ride the trails — Taking the family for an ATV ride is an adventure all initself. You get to see the country in a new way, plus you’ll have fun trekkingacross the countryside.

The popularity of mobile devicesand smartphones has produced moretech-savvy kids. Based on a 2013 sur-vey by Scratch Wireless, nearly one infive kids uses a mobile device everyday. Other children regularly go onlinethrough tablets, laptops and homePCs.Connectivity is evermore in reach- and often outside of the watchfuleyes of parents and other caregivers.Although statistics vary, Syman-

tec, maker of Norton Internet Secu-rity software, estimates that at least 20percent of kids will receive harassing,hateful or insulting messages via theInternet. That’s not the only hazardof browsing the Internet. Accordingto the Journal of Adolescent Health,65 percent of online sex offenders usesocial networking sites to gain homeand school information about theirvictims and 82 percent of online sexcrimes against minors originate fromonline social information.While parents worry about their

kids goingonline, smartphones enablefamilies to stay readily in touch, andmany students turn to the Internet forschool assignments. Parentswhowantto protect their youngsters from lessreputable online elements can takecertain measures to reduce the riskthat their kids will come across ques-tionable people and/or content whensurfing the Internet.

Set up parental controlsParental and security controls are

built into most devices that connectto the Internet. Parents can custom-ize the settings, limiting what kids canand can’t do on eachparticular device.

Websites with questionable or adultcontent can be blocked, and locationservices or chattingmay be turned off.Security settings also enable parentsto set up passwords so that purchasescan be prevented or that certain appli-cations require entry of a passwordbefore they can be accessed.

Keep personal informationto a minimumWhenever children and even adults

create newonline accounts or profiles,they should limit the amount of per-sonal information they provide. Trynot to set up usernames that includefull first and last names. Avoid anymention of birthdays, addresses,phonenumbers andnamesof schools.Vague profiles protect user informa-tion and make it more difficult foronline predators to target people.

Avoid compromising photosThe “selfie” craze invites people

from all over to post pictures of them-selves on social media sites. While itcan be fun to share images online,availability of photos can lead to trou-ble.Theseshotscouldgiveotherscluestowherekids go to school,workor live.Images posted while on vacation mayalert others that someone is not home.Compromising or suggestive pho-

tos can harm a child’s reputation—oreven lead toexploitation. Stress tochil-dren that they should only take photosthey would be willing to share withtheir parents and should keep postedphotos to aminimum.

Reading is a fundamental skill people usethroughout their lives, and in this digital age read-ing ismore important than ever.When children andtweens read, they improve their reading skills andthey also improve their comprehension, knowledgebase, concentration and vocabulary. Many childrenlove books, but getting those children to continue toread as tweens can be more difficult.

As a parent, you cannot afford to let your tween’sreading fall by the wayside or trust that the readingthey do at school is sufficient. Supplemental readingat home will help your child do better at school andin real world after graduation, too. To encouragetheir reading outside the classroom, follow thesesuggestions.

• Keep it positive. Encourage your tween toread without pressuring, nagging or bribing them.Tweens should read for enjoyment, not becausethey feel forced or stand to profit financially fromdoing so. You should also avoid criticizingwhat theyread. Even reading a gossip, music or video gamemagazine is better than not reading at all.

• Set an example. Want your tweens to takean interest in reading? Then read yourself. If yourtweens see that you make a habit of reading andenjoy doing it, they’ll bemore apt to pick up supple-mental reading on their own.

Reading outside of school is very important for kids

What would summer be withoutdays spent frolicking at the beachor afternoons spent splashing in thepool? Fun in the water makes hot daysmore enjoyable and bearable, and fewsummertime activities do not involvewater play in one aspect or another.

Although time spent in the watercan be refreshing and entertaining,water does present certain hazards,particularly for thosewhodonot knowhow to swim. Learning to swim, espe-cially at a young age, is advisable anda great way to remain safe around thewater.

TheWorldHealthOrganizationsaysdrowning is the third leading cause ofunintentional injury death across theglobe, accounting for 7 percent of allinjury-related deaths. Children, malesand individuals with increased accessto water are most at risk of drowning.In general, children under five years ofage have the highest drowningmortal-ity rates in the world.

According to the American Acad-emy of Pediatrics, parents shouldconsider swimming lessons for mostchildren between the ages of one andfour. New research has revealed thatswimming instruction for childrenbetween the ages of one and four maydecrease drowning risk.However, par-ents should be advised that swimminglessons do not remove all risk. Chil-dren still need constant supervisionwhen in and around water. Addition-ally, learning CPR can be a life-savingmeasure.

When enrolling children in swimlessons, parents should look for safety-certified instructors who have first aidand resuscitation training and certi-fication. Many programs offered aresponsored by the American Red Crossor the YMCA. Private swim clubs mayhave their own instructors.

Children between the ages of 1 and3 typically donot have themotor coor-dination to swim effectively. Thesechildren can benefit from swim les-sons that emphasize getting used tothe water, safety and learning someswimming readiness skills. Instruc-tion may involve teaching childrenhow to move their legs and arms andstrengthen muscles used for swim-ming. Children between the ages offour and five may be more develop-mentally ready for swimming. Suchyoungsters may move from water-safety lessons to actual swimming

with or without support. A study titled“Children’s readiness for learningfront crawl swimming” published inThe Australian Journal of Science andMedicine in Sport showed that wheth-er kids “started lessons at two, threeor four years of age,” they learned toswim well at “approximately the samemean age of five and a half years.”

In addition to swimming lessons,parents and other adults can ensurewater safety by taking the followingprecautionarymeasures:

• Children should never be leftunattended in the water. It takes mereinches of water for a youngster todrown.

• In the pool or another body ofwater, caregivers should be withintouching distance of young swimmersto provide help if needed, even if thechild is wearing a floatation device.

• Keep rescue equipment by thepool.

• Remove toys from the pool whenit’s not in use. These toys can attractchildrenwhowill go in after them.

• A fence around the perimeter ofthe yard may be mandatory, but afence around the pool itself is anothersafety barrier to consider. The fenceshould feature a self-latching gate.

• Even adults should be watchedwhile swimming. It is always a safeidea to swim with a buddy, so that theother person can get help if somethinggoes wrong.

Hiring a babysitter can be a toughdecision for many families. For thefirst several years of their children’slives, many parents only trust them-selvesordirect familymembers to takecare of their kids. But most parentsmust eventually rely on caretakers tolook after their children.

The best place to begin looking iswithin your own community. Church-es, preschools andanetworkof friendscan usually yield suggestions for

potential babysitters. An older child ofa close friend is often a person to con-sider. Otherwise, ask around at yourchild’s day care center or preschool.Some teachers watch children as aside job,whileothersmayoffer recom-mendations. A school that conductsbackground checks on their employ-ees as well as screens them for druguse and illnesses can takemuch of theworkout of the vettingprocess for you.As a parent, you may simply need to

call up some of the sitter’s referencesto validate his or her claims of respon-sibility.

The next step is to interview a sitterand see how he or she interacts withyour child or children. Ask questionsat this point, finding out if the sitter istrained in CPR and first aid and if thesitter completed any courses in han-dling medical emergencies or otherpotentially sticky medical situations.Be sure toaskabout experiencewatch-ing particular age groups as well.

Discuss your rules with the sitter,including bed times, food restric-tions, policy on visitors, use of certainappliances and use of social media ordigital devices while babysitting. Heor she should understand all of yourrequirements and agree to them read-ily before being offered the job.

Once a babysitter has been select-ed, have him or her come to the houseroughly 30 minutes before you decideto leave. This time gives your childrentime to grow acclimated to their pres-ence, and it gives you the chance toanswer any questions the sitter mayhave. Leave emergency phone num-bers as well as details on how you can

be reached andwhere you are going.You will probably be anxious the

first time you leave your children witha sitter. Call home to check on thingsand reassure yourself that all is well.

When you return home, ask howeverything went. Talk about situationsyou know may have been a problem,such as a reluctance for the kids togo to sleep. Reassuring the sitter thatthese behaviors are not a reflection onhis or her skills will make the babysit-ter feelmore comfortable and secure.

Some parents feel better by using ananny cam to keep a close watch onthe situation at home. This is a person-al preference, and may not be neces-sary — unless you suspect somethingis awry. In such instances, it is betterto look for a new sitter instead. Yourchildren can tell you if they liked thesitter and if they felt comfortable withhim or her. Kids who appear reluctantto be around the sitter or who exhibita strong desire for their parents tostay home should raise some red flags.However, if you’ve done your researchand have found someone you believeto be a reliable and safe sitter, thereshould be no problems.

to safely lead programs that pro-vide values lessons for your child.

Learn about the staff and campdirectors to be assured that thecamp screens, carefully selects andtrains their leaders.

Many camps are accredited bythe American Camp Association,which requires adherence to a widerange of safety practices.

4. Does your child want a gen-eral camp or a specialty camp?

Many organizations like the Yoffer more classic programs that getback to nature with rustic cabins anda variety of outdoor activities.

Some offer specialty programswith a single goal in mind, suchas nature education, training for asport, horseback riding or perform-ing music.

Talk to your children about whattype of camp interests them andwould best provide their ideal sum-mer experience.

Traditional camps that offer awide variety of outdoor programscan be very impactful, and pro-

vide kids with choices that they canmake independently.

5. Does the camp encouragehealthy eating and physical activ-ity?

The collaboration between firstlady Michelle Obama, the Partner-ship for a Healthier America andthe Y has focused on developinghealthy habits in kids, families andcommunities across the nation.

These healthy eating and physi-cal activity (HEPA) standards havebeen adopted by summer day andresident camps.

Make sure your child’s campprogram offers plenty of health-conscious meals and snacks whileproviding plenty of chances forexercise.

When kids are out of school, theycan face hurdles that prevent themfrom reaching their full potential,related to hunger, water safety, aca-demics, safe spaces to play and health.

Through summer camp andother youth development pro-grams, the Y helps more than 9million youth nationwide “hop thegap” and achieve more, providing asafe to place to learn, stay healthyand build friendships.

and create new friendships with oth-ers in the neighborhood.

Some of the simplest games aregreat ice-breakers. One game that’sgreat for getting to know each otheris to have kids stand in a circle andtoss around a bean bag or small ball.The child who throws asks a ques-tion — such as “What’s your name?”or “What’s your favorite sport?”—andthe child who catches has to answer.

Another fun idea for older childrenis a biography building circle. Kidssit in a circle and start with one childmaking a simple statement about

himself, such as “I like to play baseballwith my dad.” The next child in lineadds his or her own information bybuilding off something the first childsaid, such as “My dad is an airlinepilot.” The play continues with chil-dren each saying something new thatis somehow linked to what the lastchild said.

Research shows that physical activ-ity is good for kids. KidsHealth.orgsays exercise helps children developstronger muscles and bones, controlweight, lower their risk of type 2 dia-betes and develop a better attitudeabout life.

Parents can help kids get the exer-cise they need by fostering healthyoutdoor play in their own backyardsthis summer.

Playground equipment is a magnetfor children, and rightfully so. Kidslove playing on swings, slides andclimbing components of play sets onschool properties and at area parks.While playgrounds are ideal settingsfor fun-filled days, they also carry acertain degree of risk.

Approximately 20 children in theU.S. die from playground-relatedinjures every year. More than half ofthese deaths result from strangulation,and about one-third result from falls,according to the Centers for DiseaseControl and Prevention. But parentscan reduce their youngsters’ risk ofinjury in various ways.

• Purchase recommended, safeequipment. Parents should do theirresearch when buying playgroundequipment. Consumers can checkwith the Consumer Product SafetyCommission (CPSC) for any litigationinvolving certain manufacturers orany product recalls. It may cost a littlemore to install a top-of-the-line play-ground set, but the peace of mind isworth the extra cost.

• Invest in adequate surfacing. TheCPSC says roughly 60 percent of allplayground injuries result from fallsfrom the structures. Although no fallis pleasant, the severity of injury canbe greatly reduced depending on howsafe the surface material surround-ing the equipment is. Blacktop, con-crete or even grass can be painful toland on. However, loose-fill materialslike pea gravel, sand, shredded rub-ber or mulch can soften falls. Plus,these materials are relatively low-costand can be made from recycled items.But parents should know that loose-fill materials must be maintained toensure a safe level of thickness; a depthof 12 inches is often recommended.

• Choose an age-appropriate struc-ture. Injuries frequently occur whenchildren use equipment designed forolder kids. Playgrounds are not one-size-fits-all. There are specific differ-ences in the size and stature of young-er children from older ones, as wellas limitations in younger children’sdevelopment. Segregated playgroundareas, or those with groupings ofequipment recommended for certainage groups, can help limit injuries. Pre-school children need smaller steps andcrawl spaces, while older children canutilize overhead bars that maximizeupper-arm strength.

• Safely situate equipment. Con-

sider placing a piece of playgroundequipment under a shady area to keepchildren comfortable and safe fromsunburns. Hot equipment can resultin burns and being out in direct sun-light can also cause UV damage tochildren’s skin. Structures should besituated so there are no obstructionsor obstacles to any moving parts.

• Select a shorter structure. Stud-ies show that the greater the heightof a playground structure, the greaterthe risk for injury. Choose playgroundequipment closer to the ground.

• Inspect and maintain the equip-ment. Safety measures must still betaken after the playground has beenerected. Equipment should be rou-tinely inspected for damage, andmovable parts and joints should beexamined for any signs of wear andtear. Bolts should remain tight, andany protruding hardware should befixed. S-rings and other links andchains should not have gaps wherechildren can get caught. Wood shouldbe inspected for splintering or decayand replaced where necessary.

• Supervise kids at all times. Chil-dren should always be supervisedwhen playing on playground equip-ment, whether they are playing atschool, at home or in a public park.Adults should discourage poor or risk-taking behavior that increases risk ofinjury.

• Develop a family project — It’salways fun to spend time together asa family working on a project. Let yourimagination run wild and see where ittakes you.

Or consider partici-pating in a community service project.Maybe you have an organization closeto your heart you could raise moneyto help support. Ask the organizationif there is something your family canhelp with this summer.

• Road trip — A themed road tripcan create a lot of excitement for yourfamily members. For example, maybeyou want to create a theme of seeingall the odd tourist attractions like theworld’s largest ball of twine or thecountry’s biggest collection of auto-graphed baseballs. Perhaps you want

to visit as many national parks as youcan. Have your children help with theplanning and you’ll have a very inter-esting road trip adventure.

• Museums — Make it an educa-tional summer by planning visits toall the museums in the nearest city.Include the local zoos and plantedgardens on the list, and you’ll be sureto pique the interest of every memberof your family. Plan for one familymuseum visit a month or every otherweek, and combine it with a familydinner out or a picnic in the park.

You can combine several of theseideas together for even more fun thissummer. So whether you go ATV rid-ing and camping, or road tripping andtouring museums, you know everymember of the family will enjoy thesummer activities.
