Spring is finally here, and warmer weather is on its way . . . we hope! I don’t know about you, but I have had a bad case of cabin fever. I don’t know who’s more excited to get outdoors, the kids or me. So as you get out to enjoy the first days of spring, here are just a few things you can do with your kids to welcome the warm weather:
- Go on a nature walk and take in the sights, sounds and smells of spring. Listen for birds chirping, frogs croaking and children playing. Do you see buds on the trees, notice flowers blooming or smell fresh cut grass?
- Play a game of “I spy” color! Springtime is full of vibrant colors. Ask your child if they can spy something green (such as the green leaves), something blue (the sky), something yellow (the sun) or something red (roses blooming).
- Get a start on your summer garden and plant some seedlings.
- Go fly a kite.
- Make mud pies.
- Grab your rain jacket and boots and head outside to splash in the rain puddles.
- Play at the park.
- Enjoy a picnic or tea party outdoors.
- Head to your favorite fishing spot.
- Embrace your inner artist and get creative with sidewalk chalk.
- Play ball – whether it’s a game of catch or kicking around a soccer ball.
- Take a trip to the zoo to visit all of the baby animals.
