Local Activities

As parents, we know that spending purposeful time outside with our young kids is important. But how do we make sure we're providing them with the hands-on lessons and social interactions they need to thrive? It can be intimidating to plan outdoor experiences, especially when the latest technologies are so appealing. Fortunately, there are plenty of ways to create highly engaging outdoor moments for our kids. We just need to take the first step and get outside. Then, we can focus on finding activities that provide our kids with the valuable lessons and restorative activity that are essential to their development. With a bit of creativity and a few of the right resources, we can ensure our children are getting the outdoor play experiences they need to succeed.
