What to Do With Antsy, Bored Kids in August.
During the first few weeks of summer, having no schedule is bliss! Then right about the end of July, my kids start to get tired of the pool, tired of friends and begin complaining about boredom. Unfortunately, many summer camps end right at the same time. So thank god for VACNJ (Visual Art Center of NJ); they are here to rescue you and give you some much needed time to yourself while your kids explore the world of art and come home tired and inspired.
Their camps run weekly through August 31 for ages K to 5th grade. Kids will have a chance to explore painting, drawing, sculpture, and ceramics with their best teaching artists during a fun-filled week of art. Groups are divided into grades K-1, 2-3, and 4-5.Although the camps run from 9:45am to 3:15pm, they do offer an extended day. Campers can come as early as 8am and stay until 5:30pm. You can even choose to extend just for a single day for $25.
