Too many kids today are content with staying inside and playing video games with all of their free time. Trying to get them outdoors gets more and more difficult and requires some creativity. For kids of all ages, you will need to offer a variety of things to entertain them for any period of time at all. Don’t try to restrict activities to the backyard. Instead, find some activities that the whole family can enjoy or that will allow you some special time for just the two of you to enjoy together.

Whether you live in an urban area with a zoo or a rural area with historic landmarks, there are bound to be nature walks that you can enjoy. Your child will enjoy the opportunity to get to know their surroundings and learn about animals, plants, and historical events that are pertinent to the area. At the same time, you can both enjoy the fresh air and the exercise. Take your child’s age into account when planning walks and don’t expect too much from the younger ones.

Build a playhouse or tree house. You can find free plans online complete with the material requirements and a skills level rating. Playhouses are a great way to keep kids playing outdoors and create imaginative play. When they play a part in designing and constructing the structure, it will be a great achievement that the two of you enjoyed together!  Also consider other outdoor toys such as balls, swing sets, monkey bars and more to get your kids moving.

Go fishing. This is an event that not many children have the opportunity to enjoy but it is a great summer activity. You don’t have to invest in lots of expensive equipment, just keep it simple. Pack a picnic lunch and you can enjoy a full day of relaxing fun!

You may have let your children grow a garden before but this time let them have the opportunity to learn even more. Start working on building a compost before it’s time to grow the garden. Make sure they plant things that they enjoy eating so that they get to take part in the experience from beginning to end.

For older children who enjoy a little more adventure, consider going to one of the thousands of zip line parks and attractions that are popping up all over the country. These are lines that are run from different points that you are suspended on to transport yourself to different areas. Depending on what is available in your area, there are some of these attractions that allow you a unique way to view the wildlife and get a new perspective on nature! Just make sure that the trails are age appropriate for your children.

Also remember swimming and tubing in lakes, rivers, oceans, and swimming pools are great motivators for exercise.  Add some pool toys and make it even more fun.

There is a whole world outdoors that your children can experience and learn about. Find out what kinds of activities are offered in your community during the summer and sign up for something different than either of you have ever tried before. Encourage your children to learn new things and get to know about their communities in the process!
