6 Reasons Why Camp Invention is Even Better with Friends
Over the past 30-plus years our Inductees have taught us a thing or two about invention. You need creativity, persistence and collaboration, and there is no better way to collaborate than with friends!
As your child prepares for a week of fun-filled exploration, we encourage you to invite classmates, neighbors or even family members.
Here are the top six reasons to bring a Friend to Camp Invention®:
1. Break the ice
Sometimes first-time Campers get a little nervous about trying something new, especially if they don’t know anyone else who will be there. Bringing a friend can make these worries disappear, and together, these friends can team up and build fun summer memories.
2. Double the fun
As the saying goes, two heads are better than one. Bringing a friend to camp doubles the creativity, excitement and fun.
3. Share the spirit of innovation
Just because your neighbors’ kids live and breathe sports doesn’t mean they won’t also love Camp Invention. Who knows, you might be living next door to the next Stan Honey, National Inventors Hall of Fame® Inductee and inventor of the Virtual Yellow 1st & Ten® line.
4. Brush up on social skills
With kids missing out on in-person interactions during the school year, opportunities for socialization are more important than ever. Adding some friends also adds precious social time, in the car and after camp as well. It’s more than just talk, being around others helps to build empathy. Consider asking other parents you know if their children would like to join yours at camp. Together, they will build confidence, learn to collaborate and have the time of their lives.
5. Build new friendships
Have a friend, a co-worker, a neighbor with a child around the same age as yours? Asking them to join you at camp could be the perfect opportunity for them to get to know each other. Who knows, maybe this could be the start of a lifelong friendship!
6. Create a carpool crew
Inviting neighbors or nearby friends to camp increases your chances of making your dream carpool come true. Not only does this save time and money, but it’s also great for the environment.
