Outdoor Activities

Spend time with your kids outside and show them where their food really comes from (not Trader Joe’s). And once they grow those leafy greens, they might actually eat them too.

Gather empty boxes, wooden planks, and rocks or sticks in your yard to encourage open-ended exploration, problem-solving, and self-directed play. 

Even if you yourself can’t even dog paddle, there are plenty of ways to help your little ones get comfortable in the water and learn to swim.

The best way to get your kids to turn off their screens is to make it less boring to play outside.

It's never too early to teach children the importance of keeping our planet clean and learning how to reduce, reuse, and recycle. With a little guidance and supervision, toddlers and preschoolers can complete these easy, fun, and free Earth Day projects.

The time is ripe to take the family and friends to a local orchard. Savor the fall sunshine while you play fun games and enjoy fresh seasonal snacks.
