Happy Campers at Home: Navigating Summer with Children during COVID-19

The announcements have started rolling in: camps are canceling or moving online. Public pools and town recreation programs will remain closed. Vacations are quickly becoming staycations. It’s a lot to take in for already-stressed out parents struggling with childcare – but there’s hope!

In this Action Network Live! webinar, Audrey Monke and Lenore Skenazy take your worries about the summer of COVID-19 and transform them into inspiration for more harmony at home. Audrey and Lenore bring sanity and clarity to this uncertain summer, and offer easy, practical ways to create more happiness and connection in your family.

Audrey Monke has owned and directed Gold Arrow Camp in Lakeshore, California for 34 years, shares resources for parents and professionals on her Sunshine Parenting website and podcast, and is the author of Happy Campers: 9 Summer Camp Secrets for Raising Kids Who Become Thriving Adults, which offers strategies for bringing the “magic” of camp home. Lenore Skenazy, author of Free Range Kids, is the co-founder and president of Let Grow, a nonprofit promoting independence as a critical part of childhood, where she oversees school programs, an online community, and legislative efforts promoting the idea that when adults step back, kids step up, growing resourceful, resilient – and ready for the world.
