NURTURE CHILDREN IN NATURE

At Karma Lakelands, let your child connect with nature and explore its myriad forms in the most experiential way.

Every now and then, we hear our parents and elders nostalgically reminiscing about their childhood, when the outdoors was the natural domain of children. In contrast, the lives of children today are very different. They have fewer opportunities for outdoor play, their physical boundaries have shrunk, and they rarely have direct contact with the natural world. Invariably, the culture of childhood that once thrived outdoors has faded, with children’s everyday lives now largely centred around watching television and playing games on their smartphones.

This is despite the fact that the current generation of parents is more aware that growing up in close proximity to nature has a strong influence on children’s brains, bodies, and character in later life. However, shrinking green spaces in urbanised environments, a lack of time, and monotonous daily schedules deprive them of the energy to seek out natural spaces.

Nestled within the urban cacophony of Gurugram, yet close to nature, Karma Lakelands is the perfect destination for families who wish to feel, sense, and explore the natural world. As an eco-friendly resort, it offers much for children. The sprawling green spaces provide ample opportunities to explore, move freely, and engage with natural surroundings. All of this brings immense emotional benefits, helping children feel more relaxed and less anxious.

Furthermore, nature often brings out nurturing qualities in children. From a dedicated play area and activity corner to spending time with farm animals, understanding bee farming and bio-composting, and exploring the wide variety of plants in vegetable gardens and colourful nurseries, children can learn, enjoy, and have great fun. This direct and spontaneous contact with nature has an immensely positive impact on children’s social, psychological, academic, and physical well-being.

Children growing up in the lap of nature and continuously interacting with it also develop a deeper understanding, sensitivity, and appreciation of natural beauty and its importance. If they cultivate an affinity for nature along with a positive environmental ethic, the ongoing loss of the natural environment could slow down in the future.

Children will truly enjoy experiencing the sights, scents, sounds, and textures of the vibrant biodiversity at Karma Lakelands.
Let us nurture a generation that values nature.
