Residential Summer Camp in Maharashtra for Kids and Teenagers
A 4-day, 4-night residential personality development camp at Alibag and Pen. Not an adventure camp: four days on confidence, discipline, emotions and direction, with parents part of Day 4.
Most summer camps near Mumbai and Pune are outdoor adventure camps: trekking, rafting, camping. Those are good at what they do. This is a different kind of camp, and it helps to say so plainly.
Rupantaram is a residential life skills and personality development camp. Children and teenagers live at the venue for four nights and work in small groups on the things parents usually worry about: confidence and stage fear, screen habits, anger, study focus, talking openly at home, and what they want to become. Every skill is practised through activities. There are no lectures.
It is also the only kind of camp where the parent has a part. Parents attend a session and the graduation on Day 4 and go home with the mentors' feedback on their child.

Coming from Mumbai, Thane and Navi Mumbai

Coming from Pune and Nashik
