Do you know that over ten million American kids go to camp every summer?  小题1:Back then, before the air conditioner was invented, hot city summers were uncomfortable and even unhealthy for children, so escaping to the country for a few weeks became a popular trend.

To meet new people
Camp might give you a chance to be with people from different states, or even different countries. It’s a great way to make new friends and learn about different places and cultures.

We liked to swim in the pool a lot.”
To challenge yourself
 小题3: Fresh challenges — like trying new sports, learning new crafts and games, or pushing yourself to achieve something — can be very rewarding. Take it from Arabella, 13, who told us: “ I went to summer camp and I passed my swimming test! I can hardly swim, so it was a big accomplishment (成就).  小题4: ”
To appreciate nature
There’s a great big natural world out there, and going to camp helps you learn how beautiful and important it really is.  小题5: Getting out into the woods or mountains can give you a better understanding of how the web of life works.
