The National Bal Bhawan has played a vital role in the promotion of arts and currently there are 73 state and district Bal Bhawans in the country. The National Bal Bhawan has instituted a system of

The National Bal Bhawan makes a selection of artistic kids through activities conducted at 3 levels, viz:

Local level by organizing 2-day camps in which 8 children (2 in each stream) are identified at the local level
Zonal Levels by organizing 3 days camps in which local experts, specialists from six zones, namely North, East, West, Central, South-I and South -II participate for selection of children
National Levels by organizing 4 day camps from the six zones in the country. A panel of experts and resource persons representing the four streams are identified to observe and assess the creativity of children.
The criteria for selection of children for the Bal Shree award includes (a) originality, (b) innovative approach, (c) fluency, (d) flexibility, (e) divergent thinking, (f) elaboration of ideas, (g) creative
processes culminating into meaningful products, (h) effective functioning in the group, (i) analytical and critical approach.

The National Bal Bhawan has developed a comprehensive activities bank in order to identify the creative skills of the children. During the selection process children are provided a barrier free environment and an interactive and supportive environment aimed at bringing out the best in children. Children thus selected are honoured by the President of India and presented a Bal
Shree certificate.
