vacation Bible camps
Summer child-education programs, generally under the aegis of Protestant and fundamentalist churches. They occupy the space of secular camps and daycare, but focus on religious training, including memorization of the Bible, plays, prayer and games. They are often associated with the Southern evangelical tradition, although they have been adapted to wider circumstances, including the pressing need for summer care in working families.
