School holidays – the favourite time of the year for school-age children in Singapore! However, it can be a time of stress for parents who need to figure out how to keep their children occupied during the break. After all, the last thing you want is for your child to be glued to their screens all day long.
In that case, why not consider sending your child to a holiday camp this school holiday? From science camps to outdoor adventure programmes, there are plenty of options to keep them moving, learning, and socialising. If you are unsure which option is ideal for your child, check out our list of the best types of holiday camps for kids in Singapore.
Science And Technology Camp
Science And Technology Camp
Is your child the tech wiz of the family, constantly fascinated by the science behind the technology at home? In that case, consider exposing them to digital literacy and computational skills. With the rapid rise of artificial intelligence (AI) and an increasingly technology-driven society, educational holiday programmes focused on technology could provide the skills for your child to thrive.
A coding camp might be beneficial for your child, as learning coding can provide children with many benefits, such as improving problem-solving abilities, boosting creativity, and enhancing logical thinking skills.
For children below the age of 10, they could be exposed more toward basic programming language like Scratch, which is the more most popular and easy-to-use coding language for children. Meanwhile, teens can try their hands at a more complicated coding language like Python.
Outdoor Cooking Camp
Let your child whip up a storm while learning essential life lessons like budgeting, fire safety, and fire-making. There is no better place to pick up these crucial skills than at our Explorers’ DaycationTM.
As part of the holiday programme, your child will learn how to shop for groceries while planning a wholesome meal on a shoestring budget, gaining an understanding of the value of money. Afterwards, it is back to camp to learn the tricks and lingo of starting a fire safely and perfecting the art of barbequing.
In addition, we have a string of child-friendly holiday activities lined up for your child, like catching a movie, playing “sleepover” games, and bonding over mealtimes with a group of friends. These activities enable them to create fond memories that last a lifetime.
Speech And Drama Classes
Speech and drama classes are more than just learning to own the spotlight. It is also about providing your child with an outlet to express themselves creatively and develop their public speaking and presentation skills. Plus, your child can make new friends along the way and go home with new-found confidence.
Outdoor Adventure Camps
Adventure camps are an excellent way for children to challenge themselves and try new things. So, why not get your child moving and have them experience the great outdoors this holiday with our various holiday camps? From learning basic first aid and engaging in “risky play” under the supervision of our programme facilitators to experiencing kampong life for the first time, there is something for children of all ages.
Sports Camp
What better way to get your child moving while having fun this holiday than getting them involved in sports? The best thing about this type of holiday camp is that your child can pick their favourite sport and develop their passion and skills from there!
With proper guidance from trained instructors, your child can learn to play sports confidently, joyfully, and most importantly, injury-free. This is also an excellent opportunity for your child to forge everlasting friendships and a sense of camaraderie with peers of a similar age group.
