Activities to Get Your Kids/Teens Out of the House and Playing Outside
Last month, we touched on some of our favorite books for parents, as well as what foods to stay away from for our kids. So in honor of it being the first week of spring, we want to talk about…โฃโฃโฃโฃ๐๐๐ญ๐ข๐ฏ๐ข๐ญ๐ข๐๐ฌ ๐ญ๐จ ๐ ๐๐ญ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐ค๐ข๐๐ฌ/๐ญ๐๐๐ง๐ฌ ๐จ๐ฎ๐ญ ๐จ๐ ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐ก๐จ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ ๐๐ง๐ ๐ฉ๐ฅ๐๐ฒ๐ข๐ง๐ ๐จ๐ฎ๐ญ๐ฌ๐ข๐๐! โฃโฃโฃโฃAs spring approaches, our weather will begin to warm up, which means it’s easier to get outside and be active! โ๏ธ Here are a few easy outdoor activities to do as a family:โฃโฃโฃโฃ 1๏ธโฃ. ๐๐ฐ ๐ง๐ฐ๐ณ ๐ข ๐ธ๐ข๐ญ๐ฌ ๐ฐ๐ณ ๐ฃ๐ช๐ฌ๐ฆ ๐ณ๐ช๐ฅ๐ฆ ๐ต๐ฐ๐จ๐ฆ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ณ – Walk or bike ride to somewhere fun or just around the neighborhood.

A photo scavenger hunt is a great way to keep your teen busy while outside. If you have tech-savvy kids, this is a wonderful way to get them exploring outside while tapping into their interests. โฃโฃโฃ3๏ธโฃ. ๐๐ฐ ๐ข ๐ฑ๐ฐ๐ฑ๐ถ๐ญ๐ข๐ณ ๐๐ช๐ฌ ๐๐ฐ๐ฌ/๐๐ฐ๐ค๐ช๐ข๐ญ ๐๐ฆ๐ฅ๐ช๐ข ๐ต๐ณ๐ฆ๐ฏ๐ฅ – As our teens tend to spend most for their time on social media, why not combine that with spending time with them outside? Itโs okay if you have two left feet, itโs about engaging your teen and having fun in the process!โฃโฃโฃWhat was your favorite outside activity growing up? Maybe itโs something youโd like to do with your family? Share some ideas in the comments!๐
