5 fun and unique holiday experiences for kids…and yes, they’re all in India!
Look around and realize that the world is not about smart kids but a happy bunch of broods. And this is just the way it should be. The supreme legacy we can leave our children is happy memories. To pass onto them the joys of life, we need to learn how to bring a balance between amusement and learning.
Let them dance wearing wildflowers in their hair and let them stop by to fill their pockets with smooth stones and empty shells of snails. Most importantly be present amidst these discoveries. Gift your children with unique kids-friendly holiday experiences they would never outgrow.
Head out for a Jungle Safari
Add a pinch of adventure by making kids hit the gaunt lanes of Jim Corbett National Park located in Nainital District, Ramnagar, Uttarakhand. Take them for a bracing jungle safari across the thick forest best known for spotting out jungle cat, leopards barking deer, sambar deer, hog deer, chital, sloth and Himalayan black bears, Indian grey mongoose, otters, yellow-throated martens, Himalayan goral, Indian pangolins, langur and rhesus macaques. Jim Corbett Park will offer a great chance to kids to explore the wilderness.
Camp in the Mountains
Throw open the trekking trails to Nagg Tibba for your kids to experience the wonderment of hiking and camping amidst the mountains. This 2-day trek beginning from Mussoorie, Pantwari will teach them how to take up challenges, push their limits and imbibe perseverance. Let them ramble past dense forests and walk the ridge only to witness rewarding views of some of the bewitching lofty peaks. Pitch tents amidst the captivating beauty of the mountains and gift your kids with a lifetime experience.
Go for a Toy Train Ride
Quite similar to an excerpt from a fairytale, a dreamlike toy train ride in Darjeeling, Ooty or Shimla will be one of the most enjoyable outdoor activities for kids.
