Do you feel like your kids spend way too much time holed up indoors? Well, between school, homework, and TV, this is a definite possibility. Here are some fun and easy outdoor activities to do with your kids, strengthening the bond of your family in the process.
Let The Creative Juices Flow
One great way to spend time outdoors is by challenging your kids to use their imaginations. Some creative outdoor activities may include building a fort with outdoor furniture, such as lounge chairs, and drawing a hopscotch board outside and playing on it. You could even film a home movie.
Get Active
Naturally, the great outdoors is an ideal place to get active. You can play wiffleball, catch with a baseball and mitt, and even classic playground games such as tag and duck duck goose. If you run out of ideas, you can even wash the car with your kids, making sure to reward them for their efforts.
Let Loose
Having fun is undoubtedly the best way to ensure that your kids want to spend more time outdoors. From hula hooping to having a water balloon fight and even hosting a dance party, maybe even getting some neighbors and friends involved.
