mahsparks & westmom,

thanks for the feedback. That is my concern also, temporary effect. Actually, I am looking for holiday programme (like holiday camp) that can help to build the social skill (EQ) for my son. Do you have any recommendation?

Does anyone kids attend the Supercamp before? Is it effective in motivating kids? Just wonder how much it is different from others like Mindchamp.
