Ginny's Planet

"I doubt, therefore I think, therefore I am" - René Descartes
Inspired by this thought, today's creative by R Prasad interestingly resonates with the recent article by Dr. Shweta Verma , co-founder of Ginny's Planet & Ginny Ki Duniya Foundation.

Dr. Shweta Verma writes:

Every meaningful change begins with a question.

“Why?” and “Why not?”
Simple words that open doors to deeper understanding.

When we make space for questions rather than rush toward answers, something profound happens: we start to see beyond our general understanding, and connect through shared curiosity.

Curiosity reminds us that learning never ends, it’s how we grow together, in classrooms, teams, and communities.

✨ Summer Camp 2025 at Rashtrapati Bhavan Campus wrapped up with a joyful Grand Finale on 25 June: https://youtu.be/UzxVXfqIB-8

For 25 days, over 80 children explored, created, and connected—building bonds, confidence, and life skills that go far beyond the camp. Watching them showcase their experiences reminded us why group-focused activities are so powerful: they nurture empathy, teamwork, communication, and inclusivity.

We’re grateful to be back for the second year at Rashtrapati Bhavan, alongside Safarnaama, making summers open, slow, and full of discovery. Because holidays aren’t just a break—they’re an opportunity to grow together. 💫

🌍 With Ginny’s Planet, children add a dash of empathy & inclusion.
🌏 With Safarnaama, add a dash of adventure & exploration.

Here is our team poem:

गिन्नी है बहुत प्यारी,
चलो करें उससे मिलने की तैयारी।
साई है उसका प्यारा दोस्त,
जो सबको साथ लेकर चलता है,
एक सच्चा Host!

कभी कविता, कभी कहानी
बनकर है वो आती,
बच्चों को हँसाती, और खूब मज़े कराती।
हँसती-खेलती है गिन्नी,
करती हर जगह धमाल,
दुनिया में बन गई है वो एक मिसाल।
छह साल का ये सफ़र है आपका हमारे साथ,
आओ करते हैं कुछ बीते पलों की बात..

जब कोविड 19 ने सबको घर में रोका,
"A Day on Ginny's Planet" से दिया सबको एक मौका

Story Session, Art & Craft, Books & doll
हर जगह Ginny’s Planet का
है empathy & inclusion goal

कभी Mall, कभी School,
And समर कैंप में करते हैं
हम many things that are so cool!

Workshops में बच्चों ने सीखा अपनापन,
हर दिल में जगाया करुणा और समझ का सच्चा बंधन।
Inclusion को सिर्फ़ एक शब्द नहीं बनाया,
दिल से समझा और सभी तक पहुँचाया।

Khubani की Workshop हो या टीम की चाय,
हर moment थी, हमारी नई राय।
राष्ट्रपति भवन में जब चली समर कैंप की बात,
गिन्नी वहाँ भी ले आई
विविधता और समानुभूति की सौगात।

चलो मिलकर Ginny’s Planet
की दुनिया को रंग-बिरंगी बनाएँ ,
हर दिल में प्यार और अपनापन जगाएँ ।

हर गली, हर शहर में गूँजे गिन्नी की बात,
एक ऐसा जहान , जिसमें सभी रहें साथ,
बिना किसी भेद भाव के, दिन-रात।

Summer Camp 2025 at the Rashtrapati Bhavan Campus closed with the Grand Finale on 25 June.

At the Grand Finale, Team Ginny's Planet and Team Safarnaama felt humbled and proud to see children coming together to showcase a part of their experience.

Over 20 days with children always leaves us with special bonds, special goodbyes, and special smiles.

We are grateful for the summer camp opportunity for the second year in a row at the Rashtrapati Bhavan Campus.

Summer Holidays should always remain open, slow, and fun for children to explore different things, experience a different routine, and build connections with people they may not meet otherwise.

In all that children learn and do, Ginny's Planet hopes to add a dash of empathy and inclusivity in children's lives! And Safarnaama hopes to add a dash of adventure and exploration.
