Falling in love with the Earth: Kakani Adventure Camp

Yes, we agree this is the age of technology, and it has its significance in the modern world. But, are we forgetting our mother nature? Are we responsible towards the Earth? Or, are we just pretending to love the Earth, as we get lost in the age of technology? Let’s talk about how we get responsible towards it and how we pass the knowledge to our future generation about conserving and connecting to the Earth.

 Increasing number of depressions, anxiety is enough proof that we are not able to pass and teach young generation the real essence of life. Studies shows that engaging children in outdoor education is far better than just teaching them inside the classroom, theoretically. Children are making paper frogs, reading about parts of the tree, learning about endangered animals, but are they experiencing them in real? Not so much, most of the children are even afraid to go near them. Physical connection with the nature is important to let them experience the real world.

According to the studies, following outdoor lessons is the inexpensive and convenient way to improve youth’s engagement in education. Nowadays, parents or teachers avoid children from playing in the dirt, but they have forgotten that dirt is our real mother apart from our biological mother. We are born out of it, so just by feeling it we feel the very existence of ourselves. We need to act as a gardener so our children can bloom into the better human being, and fall in love with the Earth again.

Exploring outdoor, youths are at one with the mountains, the rivers, and the forests, where they truly belong. Sleeping under the stars once in a while, experiencing sunrise and sunset gives us the taste of the real life. Nature is not a place to visit, this is our home.

As an Adventure camp we always promote these outdoor lessons which can be valuable for youths, as well as adults in their life ahead. These lessons help to increase motivation and reduce stress which is much needed in this age of technology. View of greenery have positive effects on youth’s attention and engagement in education process. Research shows that students are move attentive and engaged after each outdoor visit.

Teachers are often worried that students might get overexcited but the case is just the opposite, they get even more enhanced and curious which is a very good thing in the learning process. We need to look at the whole learning environment and link different spaces together. It is very necessary to get students involved in the planning and management of the event from which they learn to be responsible and work as a team. Let them climb tress once in a while to let them know how far they can push themselves, let them keep relationship with animals so that they can understand empathy and behavior.

Therefore, blending technology with outdoor education can be very useful in the future of youths. Here at Kakani Adventure Camp we try our best to accommodate youths as well as adults to provide with above mentioned life skills and various activities with adventure and comfort.

  

Being a responsible camper

Responsible camping is often an afterthought when you are under the stars and blending with nature. It is always important to stay safe, and know the land of your destination and prepare for emergencies. Particularly, research about where you’re going and what will be the weather like in your campsite.

There are hundreds of things you can bring along with you while camping, but only prioritize the ones that will save you and make your camping comfortable. First-aid kits are always worthy packing for your camping. Make a list by writing down important things on a paper, that will make sure you haven’t left anything. Things such as compass, basic tool kits, 2-way radios, heat lamps, flash light, bug spray, water and toilet papers come in handy in your camping trips.

Camping @ Kakani Adventure Camp

Keep weather updates because you need to be aware of the environment if it can shift dramatically. Thanks to the internet, its been so easy to stay updated about weather conditions through different weather apps. Get the updates from these apps and act appropriately. In case, the weather shifts to rainy and stormy its better to seek shelter until it passes but make sure you avoid lone trees, streams, and exposed places.

Responsible camping means you always follow the camp rules and regulations. Rules are there for the reason and often for your own safety along with preservation of the environment around your camp.

Morning is always the right time to set off for your camping which gives you enough time to explore around the campsite and set up your camp. At least for an hour and half explore around the camp to avoid hazards and to collect water, fire woods and other essential resources. However, avoiding night time for collecting resources and using flash lights or headlights if it’s really needed to, is always safe.

As, we already know water is an important resource, so always preserve and don’t waste it. We need water for cleaning our self, cooking, clean utensils. Don’t assume that its safe to drink water directly from rivers or streams even if it looks clean. So, carrying a filter or water purifiers can keep you away from unwanted illness. Drink plenty of waters so that you stay hydrated while in your camping.

Being responsible is not that hard, just clean up your campsite before you leave and don’t leave any trace. Make sure you don’t leave footprints and your camping waste to keep it original for other campers as well. Don’t destroy plants, tress, bushes, and animals around your camp to keep it natural and show gratitude towards the nature. All you need is a bit of planning and bring all the things you need for successful camping.
