Summer Music and Acting Camps For Kids Offer A Window Into A Potential Future
During the summer we tend to throw open our doors and windows to let in the warmth; to air out the home and generally experience the sounds and smells of the season. Summer music camps for children can also serve as openings to new experiences and possible careers.
Music camps offer either a wide array of performance opportunities or concentrate on very specific musical styles, such as rock music or strictly classical; a mix of music and outdoor activities, or a total immersion environment. The delivery mechanisms may vary, but the goals of these camps are to:
Promote self-confidence and discipline
Foster a positive self-image
Hone performance skills and musical literacy
An average day in one of these camps may range from classroom instruction to group interaction and one-on-one tutorials. The idea is to move the kids from practice to performance, because most often the summer concludes with a production for the whole camp. Learning how to work cooperatively with other people and sharing the pure pleasure of singing and dancing are all positive byproducts of this kind of camp experience.
Camps may last from one week of day camp to a whole summer of sleep-away camp, and are structured for very young children up to college age. There are options suitable for children who already possess a certain skill level and intense interest in music, while others welcome individuals with an interest in singing and dancing. Some camps even employ entertainment professionals as instructors who love to share their craft with the younger generation.
Acting camps expose children not only to acting methods and learning to tell a story through drama, but also to the backstage technical elements, like lighting and set construction.
If your child just wants a fun time laced with a little jumpin' and jivin' then a low-key camp that provides plenty of the traditional outdoor activities like swimming, hiking and campfires would be the best way to go. However, if your child is already a first chair trumpeter with aspirations of a career with a symphony orchestra, then a more conservatory type program, perhaps affiliated with local music organizations, would be the best choice.
So, whether your potential diva has an interest in taking the next step to stardom or is simply interested in making new and potential lifelong friends who share her love of performing, the right summer music camp is waiting just outside her window.
