We are thankful to Lynn a Meadows Discovery Center for sponsoring the Music & Theater section in our 2022 Ultimate Summer Camp Guide.

Acting, drama, and musical theatre are the perfect examples of imaginary play. So it’s easy to see how drama and musical theatre can help a child develop self-control, as well as help them succeed in the future. Summer is the perfect time to encourage this development!
