In just less than a month the summer holidays are starting. How exciting it used to be as a child to await the vacation and how stressful it can be for parents trying to find something so that the kids are occupied during this long period of time.
Here are some links and tipps for you regarding summer camps in and around our area
:
1. SPORTSPELKAMPEN, this is a camp with a duration between 1,3 or 5 days and all about sports and games for children of different age groups betwen 5 and 17 years. It is organised in several locations around Haarlem, so make sure that you choose the one closest to you.
