Choose from our list of supercool adventure and learning camps

The heat may be scorching and unbearable, but summer vacations are no fun for anyone if children are cooped up indoors all day. This year, give them something apart from the run-of-the-mill activities they do every year. Adventure or learning camps that are held outside the city not only keep them busy with a host of activities, they are also an important exercise in personalit­y developmen­t, confidence building and social developmen­t. Read on as we bring you groups and organisati­ons which can make this vacation a summer to remember for your child.

Youreka’s outdoor camps can be a great opportunit­y for your child to make friends and learn in an exciting manner at the same time. With its 16 years of experience and an impeccable safety record, Youreka offers activities like trekking, rock climbing and archery amongst others. The camps use the outdoor adventure activities to build leadership qualities in children.

One of the unique things about this camp is the ‘Cool Book’ which each child must have. These are reflection diaries which kids fill up every evening and then share their thoughts with their particular groups. This summer, Youreka is or- ganising camps at four campsites—there are three in the North of the country and one in the South. The activities include outdoor survival, vertical limits, mountain biking, mount geo, jungle safari, film craft, riverside backpackin­g and rafting. In addition, this year, they also have seven day expedition­s which include exciting trips to Spain with activities like sailing and

snorkellin­g.
