This June, children move, build, create, play, and discover what they are capable of.
At Ekya Nava, every day is designed as a hands-on experience where children actively explore ideas, work with materials, collaborate with others, and learn through joyful participation.
Blending movement, game design, creativity, and making, the camp encourages children to think independently, express freely, and engage deeply with the world around them.
Why This Camp Stands Out
At Ekya Nava, children do not just attend activities. They spend their days moving, making, building, playing, and exploring. With a unique blend of sports, game design, hands-on making, creativity, and collaborative challenges, the camp keeps children constantly engaged, curious, and excited to learn. It is energetic, immersive, and designed for how children naturally learn best through doing, experimenting, and creating with confidence.
