[QUOTE="hearts and roses, post: 43930, member: 2211"] When mine were little like yours, they went to a YMCA day camp and it was a wonderful experience for them. As they grew older and the activities were more for younger children, they became bored and so we switched to a local town camp where the lead counselors incorporated the mid-size kids (like ages 11-13) to become counselors in training and that was wonderful. Along with this local day camp, I began sending them to 2 weeks overnight YMCA camps (specifically for girls) and those were also wonderful experiences! There were many kiddos at both camps who had varying degrees of ADHD, so I wouldn't be concerned - just let them know ahead of time. The counselors really keep them busy and occupied and active all day that he'd really have to TRY and be disruptive enough to make it a bad experience for anyone other than himself. My kids would come home completely exhausted and crash by 7:30PM. [/QUOTE]
