Nature • Culture • Bonding

📅 April 2 – April 5
📍 Village space, 10 km from Kozhikode city

This summer, Walking Ferns invites children to step away from routines and spend a few days immersed in nature, culture, and friendship.

Our summer camps are not tightly scheduled programs. They are spaces where children explore freely, make friends, and discover their interests through real experiences.

Over four days, participants will live close to nature, play traditional games, walk through village landscapes, and learn by observing everyday life around them.

What we will explore

• Nature immersion and outdoor play
• Traditional games
• Nature walks and observation
• Village walks and interactions with local life
• Simple fishing experiences (depending on conditions)
• Visit to a local Ayurveda medicine preparation unit
• Stories and reflective conversations
• Free play and friendship building

The emphasis is on curiosity, participation, and shared experiences rather than structured instruction.

Stay and Food

Participants will stay in simple dormitory-style accommodation.

Food will be simple vegetarian home-style meals.
If available and feasible in the space, we may also try to prepare fresh local fish on one of the days, depending on availability.

Who can join

Age group: 6–16 years

Children who are comfortable staying away from their parents are welcome.

Younger children who wish to participate with one parent accompanying them are also welcome, with the intention of gradually helping the child become more independent.

Camp Size

To keep the experience meaningful and personal, the camp will be limited to a maximum of 30 participants (including accompanying parents).

Fees
