So we have discussed which is better to work and now what do you think is better for the kids?

I beleive the overnight experiance is unmatchable for kids independence, confidence, and a million other things. Having to be away from mommy and daddy and to do things on your own and wake up to a new situation is amazing. I have had many homesick campers early and the change in them through out the time at camp is amazing and I don't see that happening at day camps.
