Screen Time Can Rise In the Summer

The American Academy of Child & Adolescent Psychiatry reports that the average elementary school student spends 4-6 hours per day watching or using screens - which can rise even higher during the summer months.

Balance Adventure Camp offers the ideal alternative to phones, tablets, and video games: an educational program which teaches children practical skills in a fun outdoor environment. 

“Balance Adventure Camp combines experiential education, environmental stewardship, and skill development through carefully designed activities that capture children's imagination while building essential life skills,” a spokesperson said.

Developing Nature & Survival Skills

Children can develop curiosity and ecological understanding through nature exploration, like:

• Hiking adventures
• Wildlife tracking
• Plant identification

To instill self-reliance and emergency preparedness, the program includes survival skills training across topics like:

• Fire building
• Navigation
• Farming

As the organization is interested in developing well-rounded youth, creative expression is a significant portion of each day’s schedule. Such activities can include storytelling, singing, making music, and creating art.

Two Months of Awesome Activities

Camp days begin at 8 AM and end at 4 PM throughout the summer session, which is spread across nine weeks, starting June 2nd and ending August 1st. You can sign your children up to join for a single week, several weeks, or even the entire two-month time period. Sibling discounts and scholarship rates are both available.
