Should You Send Your Kids to Summer Camp? Decide Without the Guilt

The whole group chat is signing up for three camps, two clinics, and a coding program — and you're wondering if you actually want that or just feel like you're supposed to.The summer camp decision is one of the most loaded ones a mom makes — guilt if you don't, budget stress if you do, and a comparison spiral every time you open the group chat. Today we work through all of it, no judgment, so you can make the call that's right for your family and your child.In this episode:Ask the right question first — not what everyone else is doing, but what does your child actually need this summer? (Galatians 6:4 — test your own actions, skip the comparison.)Watch the overscheduling trap — busyness isn't a good summer; intention is, and boredom is where creativity lives.Do the budget reality check — free and low-cost can be just as rich, and there's zero shame in choosing it.Plus: the one-word filter that makes every camp and scheduling decision simple for the rest of the summer.If this episode encouraged you, hit Follow so you never miss a Tuesday, and leave a review.
