Please come to the UK - my wife and I spend a remarkable amount of time trying to organize stuff to keep our son constructively occupied!

[NB One thing I would love is some way to enter into a discussion with our son about what he wants to do and to rate different options - at the moment we do this through email and printing stuff out, which is dreadful.]

Hey! Actually, I just found out that there were camps in the UK. I met an ex pro-football player who used to run his own programs in the UK from 1999-2009. I'll definitely explore expansion to the UK! I love it there, and drive a Mini :). Good points on the discussion with your child--we'll have camper profiles soon to allow for kids to bookmark their own things
From what I understand, things are a bit different here - most camps/activities are for a week or less, so for a summer holiday of 7 weeks there is a lot of time to fill and a lot of organizing to do.
In the summer, things are somewhat similar on this side of the pond. There are lots of one week day camps over the summers.
