Going to summer camp no longer means that kids will be weaving bracelets and making s'mores—there are some [unusual summer camp types](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stem-summer-camp) out there that are more tailored towards a specific interest, like the Kids 'N Comedy camp, which helps kids bring out their inner funny.

Kids 'N Comedy calls for kids between the ages of 10-18 who are "creative (weird), intelligent (nerd), and full of interesting opinions (extremely unbalanced)" to take part in [improv, acting and stand-up comedy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/comedy-bit). Groups at Kids 'N Comedy are limited to 10 kids per session, so that everyone gets a turn.

Instead of taking place in the bushes somewhere, this camp is held at the Gotham Comedy Club in Manhattan and promises [air conditioning](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/indoor-camping-experience). Plus, at the end of it all, there's a graduation show—making someone laugh has got to be more rewarding than spending your summer collecting merit badges.

## Key Themes

### What Makes This Trend Stand Out

- **Comedy Education:** Summer camps that focus on helping kids develop their creative and funny sides are becoming more popular.
- **Alternative Summer Camps:** Gone are the days of traditional summer camps, as camps tailored towards a specific interest emerge allowing kids to explore and develop niche skills.
- **Small Group Learning:** Summer camps with limited class sizes have the potential to provide more individual attention to participants.

### Sectors Adopting This

- **Education:** Comedy education could be an innovative way for schools to foster creativity and can supplement traditional learning.
- **Entertainment:** Comedy summer camps present a new source of talent for the entertainment industry to cultivate and develop.
- **Travel and Tourism:** Alternative summer camps like Kids 'N Comedy can attract parents looking for educational and unique summer activities for their children, presenting a new market for tourism operators.
