Although many parents are relieved that virtual school is out for summer, having the kiddos hanging around with nothing to do [1] all season long is less than ideal. Fortunately, YouTube is releasing more than 1,200 videos for children and teens on its #CampYouTube page [2], a free digital experience that lets kids and parents re-create the thrills of summer camp at home.
Whether your mini mes are obsessed with anything and everything STEM-related [3] or have always wanted to learn to play guitar or master yoga [4], there's truly something for every kid.
Ahead, find a small sampling of the programs YouTube is offering (FYI parents: some videos may prompt you to make a YouTube Kids account, but setting one up is pretty quick!). And if you're looking for more ways to provide your family with camp alternatives, check out this list of additional virtual summer programs for kids [5].
