Episode Title: Summer Camp Talk: What to Pack, What to Expect, and When Kids Are Ready
Episode Summary:
Is your child camp-ready, or are you just ready for a little peace and quiet? In this episode of I Get It From My Mom, Elissa, Ava, and Maggie dive into the world of summer camp - day camp, sleepaway, and everything in between.
We talk about how to know if your kid is ready, how to choose the right camp (arts vs. sports, co-ed vs. single gender, etc.), and what really happens once they’re there. From Ava’s camp counselor stories to Maggie’s time as a camper-turned-waitress, to Elissa and David’s own camp experiences, it’s a hilarious, helpful, and heartfelt look at this rite of passage for so many families.
You’ll hear:
✅ Tips on what to pack
✅ How to handle homesickness (yours and theirs)
✅ The experiences kids and parents should expect
✅ Why the camp photo portal is both joy and torture
Whether you're a first-timer or a seasoned camper parent, this episode will help you prepare—and laugh—through it all.
