Little dreamers blossom into storytellers and adventurers

Imagine a world where toddlers embark on tiny adventures in a realm of discovery, where the sun sprinkles magic dust and each day unfurls like a vibrant storybook. Summer camps are the enchanted gardens where social butterflies first spread their wings. Here, toddlers learn the delicate art of making friends, sharing stories, and working together. It’s a place where tiny hands reach out to others, forming bonds that glisten with the golden light of camaraderie. 

These early friendships are the first brushstrokes in the masterpiece of their social lives. To let these young minds explore beyond their imagination, Apeejay Rhythms Kinderworld, GK-II, organised a summer camp for the age group of two to eight-year-olds from May 20 to June 7. 

The kinderworld believes in celebrating the essence of childhood by nurturing a space where children can truly be themselves. The summer camps are designed to embrace the magic of learning through play, allowing kids to savor the simple joys of life while immersing in enriching experiences. These meticulously planned camps offer a platform for children to explore, learn, and create cherished memories. 

The focus

Their goal was to develop all three domains of learning — cognitive, psychomotor, and affective — striking the perfect balance between skill development and the creation of lasting friendships and unforgettable moments.

Programmes organised

The youngest campers delighted in a variety of age-tailored activities such as Mom & Tot bonding sessions, enchanting Theatre Magic, dance classes from Tutus to Hip Hop, artistic adventures in Canvas & Creativity, curiosity-sparking inquisitive minds, and the exciting world of Code Wizards. Each of these programmes was expertly led by specialists dedicated to nurturing their unique talents and interests.

The Theatre Magic sessions

These sessions ignited the children’s imaginations with interactive storytelling and role-playing, allowing them to delve into diverse characters and scenarios. In Canvas & Creativity, young artists unleashed their inner visionaries, experimenting with various painting and crafting techniques to produce remarkable artwork reflecting their distinct viewpoints. Inquisitive Minds was all about fostering curiosity and sharpening critical thinking, engaging the children in activities that sparked their intellectual growth.

Engaging in puzzles & science experiments

Students developed a passion for inquiry and gained a deeper understanding of the world through engaging puzzles, science experiments, and problem-solving tasks. The Tutu to Hip Hop Dance sessions were vibrant and energetic, fostering physical fitness and rhythm. These dance classes allowed children to express themselves through movement, enhancing their coordination and boosting their confidence. Additionally, the programme included Scratch Coding classes, offering young learners a fun and interactive introduction to essential coding skills.

Animations

The toddlers were also taught to master the basics of creating simple animations, bringing characters to life with movements, sounds, and interactive features. The afternoon’s highlight was a charming performance by the little ones, set to the iconic theme song from the beloved movie Frozen.

Clad in costumes of their favorite characters, the children gracefully danced to the enchanting melodies of “Let It Go.” Their perfectly synchronised movements showcased the skills honed during the Tutu to Hip Hop sessions. As the sun set on this magical day, it was evident that the summer camp at Rhythms Kinderworld had been an extraordinary journey filled with learning, creativity, and joy.

“Our summer camps are filled with fun activities, cherished memories, and endless inspiration. Unplug, explore, and grow. See you at the next summer camp, kids!  Until then, happy sunny tales,” Ms Komal Nathani, School Head, Rhythms Kinderworld,GK II shared.

The summer camp concluded with a spectacular celebration, highlighting the remarkable talents and creativity of our young participants. The grand finale was a day brimming with excitement and pride, showcasing the wonderful achievements of the children.

A parent, Ms Amrita Jain, mother of Vidhaan Jain, student of Rhythms Kinderworld, GK-II, sharing her experience about the summer camp said: “This summer camp has been an incredible journey for my child, fostering not just his love for dance but also nurturing his confidence and skills in various areas. His newfound passion for dance has not only helped him conquer his stage fright but has also enhanced his hand-eye coordination and understanding of rhythms and beats. I am immensely grateful to the dedicated teachers who have played a pivotal role in his growth. Their genuine care and support have created a nurturing environment where my child feels comfortable to explore and excel. Their commitment to nurturing young minds deserves commendation, and I can’t thank them enough for making this summer camp experience truly enriching for my child.”

‘My three-year old daughter, Amayra Singhal, truly enjoyed the summer camp conducted by Apeejay Rhythms Kinderworld. The sessions were so interactive, informative & activity-based’ says Ms Ritu Singhal, mother of Amayra Singhal.

‘My daughter learnt so much & the faculty of the school is exceptionally well experienced. All the teachers were so cooperative.This was our first time experience with this school & would recommend it to all the parents with young toddlers for well grooming of their child’ added Ms Singhal.

Overall, in this fantastical realm, toddlers did not just spend their time away from home, they also embarked on the first grand adventure of their lives, where every moment is a magical stepping stone to the person they will become.
