day camp
No-sleepover summer program
A day camp is a supervised program for children that runs during daytime hours, typically in summer, with participants returning home each evening rather than sleeping overnight.
Day camps offer activities like sports, arts, swimming, and nature exploration: The kids are in day camp while we're at work.
Compare with sleepaway camp, where children stay overnight.
