The Curiosity Programs are generally for children in the age group of 7 to 12 years. We may increase the minimum age depending on how challenging the program is and its duration.
Most often, the Curiosity Programs are shorter in length - around to three to six days, and are an exciting introduction to an adventure lifestyle far from the comforts of our modern homes. Your child will be surrounded by the Himalaya, meet an amazing group of new friends, face challenges at every step, gain resilience and as the adventures unfold, these young people will gain a new confidence that will hold them in good stead for years to come. |
“It's been a month now and I can see some minuscule changes in them. They are more independent. They read instructions and make small snacks and soups for themselves. I also think they have a better understanding about themselves and their friends...no book, no class could have taught them that.

CURIOSITY PROGRAMS - A SNEAK PEEK
We have two kinds of Curiosity Programs - one offered through schools and the other are OBI-H's Open Programs that are run over the autumn, winter and summer breaks when the young people can join.

CAMPING & DAY HIKESIt is often said: "Only the inquiring mind solves problems" and at OBI-H we encourage those questions and ensure that young minds are not brushed off with an adult explanation. Fixed campsite with daily activities to touch, feel, and experience the outdoors; hike up that mountain to see how rapids are formed; recognize a Himalayan bird from its chirping alone; spend time alone in reflection - this and a lot more encompasses the Curiosity Programs at OBI-H. |

TOUGH KIDS EXPEDITIONSFor kids between 8 and 12 years, the perfect age to head out expedition style - no fixed campsites in the Tough Kids Expeditions. The young people move from campsite to campsite setting up their own tents and enjoying new vistas everyday. There's a lot more learning here and infinitely more exciting! Children begin to test their own independence, and return home with new stories to tell and new skills that they are eager to share!

SKI COURSESIt's the perfect age to learn skiing! We have conducted these ski courses across Manali, Gulmarg, and the Dolomites in Italy. This is a 6-day program with four full days of skiing - perfect to pick up the basics, graduate from the baby slopes and hit the higher, more challenging runs.
