Balbhavan is more than just a centrally located two-acre playground for children in Pune or a recreation center that serves as an area for social and cultural activity. In the psyche of thousands of Punekars across the world, Balbhavan is synonymous with a magical childhood enriched by varied experiences, new discoveries and warm, child-respecting adults.
Balbhavan is the creation of Mrs. Shobha Bhagwat (known to all as Shobha Tai) and her team of 50 dedicated, trained child care professionals. This institution not only moulds children into compassionate, articulate, clear-thinking individuals but also guides their parents into becoming socially aware, responsible adults through all its multifarious activities.
Garware Balbhavan formally opened its doors and its heart to the children of Pune on September 1, 1985 with one single aim: Provide children with moments of joy that they are unable to derive either from schools or from their homes.
At Balbhavan, children play freely in wide, open spaces. Due to this, their appetite grows, they feel hungry. They sleep quietly with ease. They remain happy and content. Their concentration improves. The multifarious experiences they are exposed to at Balbhavan enhance their self-confidence. By performing many skilled operations with their own hands, they grow into knowledgeable, self-reliant individuals. They learn many new things easily. From all this, they effortlessly learn many core life values. The environment of Balbhavan, which is one of love, trust and freedom helps in the all round development of children.

At Balbhavan, children experience moments of joy that they are unable to derive either from schools or from their homes. Children come to Balbhavan in the evening after school. Here they are exposed to multifarious experiences in the form of exercise, sports, art & craft, stories, song & dance, drama, picnics, bird watching, trekking, industrial factory visits, live demonstrations, camps, campfire nights. To experience all these is an important constituent in developing & nurturing the personality of children. To children who come here, Balbhavan feels like "My Organisation". The specialty of Balbhavan is that it allows children to freely express themselves, to remain on the learning curve using the experiences and experiments that the Balbhavan environment provides them.
