Whether you are looking for full-time care for your kids during the winter break or just need a day or two to finish your shopping, winter camps are a great option. 

There are many organizations and businesses that offer holiday camps here in the Austin area.  If your child is involved in any type of sport, check in with them to see if they offer some type of camp.  I know that most of the gymnastic centers here in town do have some sort of winter break camp.  Also, many of the high schools have day camp options through their cheerleaders or other sports teams.

You can search in our Business Directory under Camps > Winter Break Programs for more camps in your area.  Here are just a few options for winter camps this year:
