If you’ve never been to camp, Summer Skate Camp may just sound like a fun way to keep your kids occupied this summer. And there’s no doubt that your kids will have more fun playing at Carousel Skate than they would camped in front of the TV. But according to child development researchers, the benefits of summer camp could change your child’s life.

Benefits of Summer Skate Camp

1. Physical fitness. Every parent has been there. After months of telling your kids, “You’re not just sitting around this summer!” that’s exactly what happens. It’s easy to let the kids get lost in technology, especially when mom and dad have a to-do list a mile long. At Summer Skate Camp, kids stay active all day. We start the morning with roller-skating, but it doesn’t end there. We give your kids a dose of sunshine, friendly competition, and games to encourage teamwork during summer camp at Carousel Skate.
2. Make friends. Sometimes camp friends share a week together, then move on. Sometimes they develop bonds that last a lifetime. Either way, camp teaches kids important lessons about socialization, teamwork, and making friends. They’ll be talking about their new skating friends for the rest of the summer!
3. Learn independence. Spending the day away from mom and dad may be hard at first, but it teaches kids valuable lessons about independence and problem solving. At skate camp, kids learn how to problem solve, resolve conflict, and have confidence in themselves and their abilities.

Summer is almost here. Time to get rolling! Call Carousel Skate for more information about Summer Skate Camp. 

Kids Playing

Worried your kids will spend another listless summer with only technology for company? Do something about it! At Carousel Skate, we believe in good old fashioned fun. That means lots of laughs, meeting new friends, and making memories. Our summer skate camp is just the ticket to get your kids up, moving, and having fun.

Why Kids Love Summer Skate Camp

We’re putting together a camp that’s the ultimate in kid entertainment. At Summer Skate Camp, kids will learn to roller-skate, get to hang out with friends, and enjoy daily activities like crafts, bounce houses, obstacle courses, and more. After a week with our trained skate instructors, your child will have the skills and confidence to skate safely any time. That means new opportunities for birthday parties, class events, fitness fun, and quality family time. Carousel Skate is a family owned and operated skating center that’s had decades to perfect retro fun with a modern twist. With our state-of-the-art lights show, sound system, TVs, and arcade games, kids will want to stay and skate all day.

What to Know about Summer Skate Camp

Summer Skate Camp is great opportunity for kids to learn and grow this summer. We have three summer sessions this year:

• June 6 through June 10 (8am-12pm)
• July 11 through July 15 (8am-12pm)
• August 1 through August 5 (8am-12pm)

Each session will include lessons on proper stretching and exercise, group skating instruction, fun games (Skate Limbo, anyone?), snacks, open skating, a fun non-skating activity, and lunch. At the end of the week, each kid will take home a brand new pair of roller-skates! But don’t worry if your child’s a longtime skater; we have packages available with no skates included. To guarantee a great time for all the kids, each camp session is limited to 50 skaters.

Take your party from ordinary to extraordinary with these tips for throwing a skating party.

How to Make Your Next Birthday Party Extraordinary

1. Plan ahead. Sure, we take care of setup, cleanup, and all the little things in between. But you can guarantee a great birthday by snatching up your perfect party time, sending out invites, and working out the details (like when parents should pick up their kids) in advance.
2. Think with your stomach. Every Carousel Skate party comes with ice cream and drinks for the kids. Our Deluxe Package also comes with 3 hot, cheesy pizzas for the guests. Not sure what the kids want to eat? Tell their parents to send them with a few bucks and they can get dinner a la carte at our concession stand. We also allow parents to bring cake or cupcakes to birthday parties, so go ahead and put in that order for a disco skate cake! (No other outside food or drink is permitted).
3. Get in the mood to celebrate. Bring balloons, give the invitations a special theme, or ask the kids to come in costume! The fun has only just begun.
4. Arrive early. Make sure your party host has a list of which kids RSVP’d to your event. After all, we need to know who to let into the party! You can also chat with your party host about any questions you may have before the fun begins.

It’s time to party! Throw a birthday bash that’s a smash hit. Call Carousel Skate Center to book a kids birthday party in Wichita.
