As parents of young children, it’s more important than ever to prioritize time spent outdoors. Experiences outside offer hands-on lessons, valuable social interaction, and much-needed restorative activity that just can’t be replicated through a digital device. Knowing how to make the most of these outdoor opportunities can be a challenge.
But there’s good news: you don’t have to be an expert to provide your kids with meaningful outdoor experiences. Taking the first step of simply getting outside is the best place to start. From there, you can explore activities such as nature walks, outdoor games, gardening, or even a picnic. With a little creativity, you can create your own special family moments that are sure to bring smiles.
One of the most important habits of great problem-solvers is asking great questions. Together, we’ll wonder about how creatures around us thrive in winter. Then, we’ll create cozy dens of our own!
