Summer’s here! But just because the sun is high in the sky, it doesn’t mean kids can’t continue learning, while enjoying the experience. At Junior Tours, we’ve been creating trips and excursions that make education fun since 1967.
Our top summer camp educational trips in 2017 is a window into some of what’s available to young people keen to continue learning over the summer months. There’s something for everyone and the diversity of experience will amaze you.
Language immersion.
Summertime keeners interested in learning a new language will be thrilled to know there’s a summer camp dedicated to just that. With the world becoming increasingly small, young people who speak more than one language enjoy greater opportunities.
Concordia Language Villages offer 1 week and 6 week options for immersion learning, through the end of August. Based in Moorhead, MN, students are treated to cultural as well as linguistic experiences. Issued passports, camper are also given names which reflect the language they’re learning.
Kids can choose immersion in 15 languages, from Japanese to Arabic.
For budding diplomats.
In the Catskill Mountains, kids can learn diplomatic skills at the model United Nations camp. With 3 1-week sessions offered between July 21 and August 10, students interact with professors and peace corps volunteers to learn about international relations and how they’re effectively managed.
With a different theme each week, students will connect with complex themes in diplomacy, from combating cyber warfare to global access to medical care.
Participants also enjoy a simulation of the World Trade Organization, in which such weighty matters are discussed on the international level.
Game and app design for the geeks.
Geek is the new mogul and kids with their dreams set on the world of coding and computing will fit right in at the National Computer Camps.
On three campuses located in Fairfield, CT, Atlanta, GA and Cleveland, OH, classes take place on various dates during the month of July. Campers will learn how to produce 2D and 3D games, design an app for the Android mobile device and create digital videos.
Coding certification courses are also available for older, or more computer savvy campers.
Space – the final frontier.
Space Camp in Huntsville, AL runs from the beginning of June through the end of August. Among it’s alumni are NASA astronauts.
Drawing on STEM disciplines (science, technology, engineering and math), students aged 9 to 18 learn to apply these within the context of the space program, with practical hands-on experiences. They’ll also have an opportunity to apply their analytical skills to space mission findings and participate in simulations of mission control.
Junior Tours creates outstanding educational experiences for students. Founded by a teacher, we’re committed to combining learning with fun, offering student groups exceptional trips and tours, tailored to educator vision.
