Most people who have considered the possibility of organizing their own day camp find the idea overwhelming. What's involved? How do we get started? Can we do that? Annette Leibovitz, author of the book, Our Camp Our Children, can answer all of your questions on how to start your own home-based cooperative family camp.

This is also a nice program to learn about fun activities to incorporate into your children's summer.

It includes chapters on food, field trips, effective games to play, science, music, safety issues, ideas for art, and plenty of weekly summer themes.
