Boring parental question alert...

..big Squizlet has been asked to go away for 2 nights in July on Brownie camp (she's 7). It's a well organised thing at one of these activity centres where she'll be doing activities such as archery, grass sledging & orienteering. It's the first time 'my baby' will be away from home (without being with family/friends), & whilst I have reservations, she wants to do it so I've said she can go. Her father doesn't agree.. says she's too young.

Have any of you let your kids do such things at this age?

Worthy Out..
