With summer pretty much here, that means Liz and I are about to say good-bye to a few of our kids as they head off to summer camp, some close by, and one well, to Japan! We get asked all the time about sleepaway camp, from wanting to know how to decide when a kid is ready to how to pick the right one, and well, pretty much everything in between. So, we answered all those questions, and more, in this week’s episode of Spawned with Kristen and Liz. -Kristen
