With summer break fast approaching, moms and dads often begin to worry, "What will I do with the kids all summer?" How do kids in your part of Russia spend the summer? What activities, camps, excursions would you recommend to other parents? Please post your suggestions and contact information for specific camps/activities. This information will be extremely helpful for other parents - especially those parents who are just moving to Russia this summer.

There are quite a few ideas listed at the Children in Moscow.ru website, which also has a calendar with information on some summer camps and other organised programmes for children over the long summer holidays: www.childreninmoscow.ru
Our child went to a couple of the summer programmes and really they all seem to be quite good. It's best to choose one convenient to where you live really, although the traffic isn't usually as bad over the summer with everyone on holiday and at their dachas. We also organised meet ups at local parks with friends when the weather was good as a lot of them have good playgrounds and areas to run around. When we had visitors staying we'd take them to the estates and other museums that also have good playareas or outdoor areas for running around. A lot of these places are listed on the website.
Most Russians send their children to their dachas. Some send them to summer camps abroad to improve their English (or other language). A lot of the expats go on home leave for a few weeks too so it's generally fairly quiet in Moscow during June-August, getting suddenly very busy with terrible traffic again at the start of the new school year in September.
