What Happens In Chinmaya Summer Camp?
Camp topic - Child Devotees of Bharatavarsha
The child devotees like Prahalada, Meera, Nachiketa, etc are a source of inspiration for our children. They will learn the stories and their symbolism from our Swamijis and trained teachers in a very engaging, discussion-oriented way.
Chanting and Bhajans
The children will learn to chant stotram and sing bhajans. It is a joy for them to sing and chant along with their friends. The chanting helps with memory and concentration.
