Date: March 04 2016
![]() Life outdoors is one of the greatest things that life has to offer. Learning to enjoy outdoor experiences will, most likely, lead to a healthier lifestyle, where fun can be found just by stepping out the door. As any healthy habit, a love for the outdoors must be cultivated – if possible, from early age. Here’s our 5-tip list to begin with:
1. Nature walks. Kids love this one; nature walks, however, must take place either with adult supervision or within previously surveyed areas, in order to avoid unpleasant surprises (bugs, plants, tricky areas).
![]() 2. Sports. Of course, sports can’t be left out this list. Rugby, soccer, tennis and biking are great options that are meant to be practiced outside. Fun, discipline and friendship are usually included!
![]() 3. Geocaching. Perhaps one of the most interesting things to do outside with kids. Who doesn’t love a treasure hunt? That’s what geocaching is all about – with the aide of technology. There’s a ton of apps to make it happen in no-time, and you can be creative when it comes to ‘treasure’: little toys tend to do the job with small children.
![]() 4. Kites still rock. Impervious to the passage of time, kites are a nice DIY project to do with children. Then, off to a windy prairie or the beach for the flying part!
![]() 5. Garden campers are happy campers. Making a tent in the garden is a little private adventure. The tent will act as fort, tea room, cave and hideout: imagination is the mother of invention. Plus, it’s an outdoors activity that needs little supervision: after all, it will happen in your backyard.
