Kids Corner
A joyful spiritual learning programme for children aged 5–15 — combining devotion, creativity, and fun every Saturday.
Nurturing Spiritual Seeds
The Balavihar (Kids Corner) programme is ISKCON Kanpur's dedicated children's spiritual education initiative. It provides a safe, loving, and inspiring environment for children to learn about Krishna consciousness in age-appropriate, engaging ways.
Children learn not just spiritual knowledge, but also important values — honesty, compassion, respect for elders, care for animals, and a sense of service to others.
📅 Every Saturday
10:00 AM – 12:00 PM
ISKCON Kanpur, Swaroop Nagar
