Summer camp can be a frightening new experience for young children and brings on separation anxiety not unlike first day at school jitters. There are some simple preparatory things that a parent can do to lesson their child’s anxiety.

An article on earlychildhood.suite101.com entitled, “Dealing With Separation Anxiety in Young Children at Summer Camp” by Susan Caplan, elaborates. It’s worth a quick read.

Look for other articles on this topic. It is a very common anxiety for lots of kids and worth investigating.
