Oh cym, don't get me wrong. DS loved it. It was a great camp and a wonderful first sleep away camp. I was just a little surprised that most of the camp programs (I'm not sure about robotics) were based on using software that could be easily purchased. (I had thought that they would be starting more with basic principles of programing and computers.) We loved that he had such close supervision and so much assistance, etc.as he learned the programs. And he learned a lot from them, so much that now he is pretty independent with those programs. So we agreed that with that as a foundation, he doesn't need to do it again. We can branch out and try something different. So I have no regrets about sending him.
Oh yeah and since we don't have video games at home, he was in 7th heaven on the Guitar Hero tournament. And I got huge points from him for letting him go to a camp where there were so many other computer-oriented kids to play with and his screen time wasn't limited to 2 hours per day!!.
