At-Home Summer Activities for Holidays

The most awaited time of the year for children is almost here. Summer vacations! But coronavirus is again playing a dampener, forcing us all to stay indoors. But fret not! Kids can still have lots of fun. Being the best school in Dehradun, we share some cool activities to try with your kids.

DIY science projects

Blend a little bit of learning with lots of fun. Holidays are meant to be enjoyed but infusing it with scientific lessons will keep kids on their toes and keep their spirit of curiosity alive. Create DIY science kits and projects with your kids. It’ll also enkindle their imagination and creativity while giving them something productive to learn, not to mention it’ll be a great hands-on learning experience.

Backyard Camping

This is for those lucky ones who have a backyard or private open space surrounded with nature. Plan an overnight stay in your backyard by putting up a DIY tent or camp. Light some bonfire and cook some meals with your kids. Lie under the starlit sky and tell your kids fun facts about the cosmos.  Try to create an authentic camping experience.

Indoor Gardening

Getting children to know their food, where it comes from and how it’s grown is not only important but it can be deeply rejuvenating as well. They get to know how Mother Nature nurtures us with healthy nutrition. What’s more? They’ll learn more about the scientific principles of nature. If you don’t have a garden, you can always plant the seeds and saplings in pots and planters.

Get Them to Try Yoga

Yoga is a holistic physical practice that aims at balancing the energies of mind, body and spirit. It is deeply rewarding experience for anyone who practices it. The body become agile, supple and flexible and the mind calm. Introduce simple and easy postures first and gradually move on to advanced postures. Cultivating it as a habit will enable kids to reap great benefits in the long run.

All these activities and ideas are full of fun and learning and are budget-friendly and easy to execute too. As one of the top CBSE schools in Dehradun, we want to make sure the students have wonderful holidays with a dash of some educational experience.
