**Explanation: If you are not facing your campers, there is a higher likelihood that they will run off, misbehave, or complain. Facing them allows you to engage with them by playing a game or doing a camp chant.

**Explanation: At Camp Sonshine, we want our campers to be engaged and having fun all day long. Transitioning from one place to another is a great opportunity to do something fun where kids may not expect it!

**Explanation: It is important to include all kids in any transition activity. The kids in the back of the line are probably more likely to express undesirable behavior! Additionally, it is okay to be flexible with your kids, meaning, they do not have to be in a perfect line the whole time.

**Explanation: Pretty much all throughout the day, we provide planned activities for staff and their campers. Transitions are the only time when it is totally up to you what to do! Because of this, a lack of engagement will quickly prompt the campers to start complaining or act out.

**Explanation: Campers are like sponges, they soak up everything! So if you are positive, then they will be positive. If you are negative, then they will be negative. The best way to get your campers excited is to be excited yourself.
