School is out and that means a frantic rush for parents to find the perfect summer camps for kids. Whether that is because their own vacation plans fell through or the fact that they will be working through the hot weather themselves, it is important to keep children stimulated even in the heat and humidity. These options focus on a wide range of personalities, showing just how important being different is these days.
Whether inspired by the dystopian plot outlined by 'The Hunger Games' or staying up with the times by way of a child hacker convention, these summer camps for kids show just how fast the world is changing. No longer do traditional nature-embracing summer camps cut it for the youth of today. Now they are clamoring for something more useful and exciting.
