To know the name of a bird is one thing.

To notice where it chooses to sit, what it eats, how it calls, why it moves and what its presence tells us about a place is another.

That is the difference we are exploring at the Roots Birding Bootcamp.

This isn’t simply a guided bird walk where the expert spots and you follow. It is a practical introduction to the skills of birding itself, giving you the tools to identify, observe and understand birds more independently.

Because curiosity becomes far more powerful when you know how to follow it.

Children are naturally good birders. They notice the tiny movement in a branch, the strange sound from somewhere above, the feather on the ground that most adults have already walked past.

This parent + child birding workshop builds on that instinct.

Rather than simply pointing out birds and naming them, we’ll learn together how to observe behaviour, listen for calls, notice habitats and begin understanding the clues birds leave all around us.

A small shift, but one that can change the way you and your child look at the natural world.

This World Rhino Day, we’re thinking beyond the Rhino itself.

The greater one-horned rhino has made a remarkable recovery, from fewer than 100 animals in the early 20th century to more than 4,000 today.

But a species does not exist on its own. Its survival is tied to the forests, grasslands and corridors that make up its habitat.

That is why the current debate around Kaziranga matters. Assam has proposed reducing the Eco-Sensitive Zone around the park, and the proposal has sparked public protests and debate over wildlife, livelihoods and development.

If you’d like to learn more, look up the Save Kaziranga campaign and the ongoing conversation around the proposed ESZ reduction.

Because protecting wildlife means paying attention to the world around it, too.

There’s a particular joy in discovering something alongside your child, when their fascination becomes yours too.

If that sounds like the kind of morning you’d enjoy together, our upcoming workshop, Antventure is a lovely place to start.

A line of ants can lead to a surprising number of questions.

At Antventure, children and their parents get to discover the fascinating world of ants through observation, exploration and plenty of curiosity.

Designed around the Forest School learning framework, this parent-and-child experience gives young explorers the time and space to look closely, follow trails, investigate what they find and begin to understand the lives of these tiny creatures.

- SGNP, Mumbai
- Ages 3–5.5 years

There is a particular kind of learning that happens when children are given something real to investigate.

A patch of soil. A strange little creature. A trail of ants. A question they can’t immediately answer.

They look closer. They get curious. They try to make sense of what they’re seeing. And before they know it, they’re learning through the world around them.

That’s the kind of learning we make space for at Roots.

Capsule Earth is our upcoming three-session outdoor experience for children aged 7–12, exploring soil, mud and the many small lives and systems connected to them.

📍 SGNP, Mumbai
📅 10th, 11th & 17th October 2026
⏰ 7:45–10:30 AM

If your child is the kind who wants to touch, question, investigate and figure things out for themselves, DM “EARTH” and we’ll share the details. 🌱

We want children to know the world they live in.

Not just its names and facts, but the relationships that make it what it is.

The soil beneath a tree.
The creatures that live in it.
The water that moves through it.
The roots, insects, plants and countless small lives that depend on one another.

Capsule Earth is an opportunity to explore these connections through direct experience.

Across three outdoor sessions, children will get their hands in the soil, explore mud, observe the tiny creatures that inhabit it, investigate what they find and follow their own questions.

Because we believe children learn differently when they are given the chance to experience something for themselves.

They notice more.
They ask better questions.
They begin to see relationships where they once saw separate things.

And perhaps, in understanding the earth a little better, they also begin to understand their place within it.

🌱 Capsule Earth
10th, 11th & 17th October 2026
Ages 7–12
SGNP, Mumbai
7:45–10:30 AM
