Getting kids active is a challenge for parents and teachers alike.Most 10-year olds today are all about video games, iPads, and Netflix – but too often, they’re stuck indoors. It can be challenging to get them outside to play.
We all know that sitting in front of the computer all day is not good for their health and well-being. If you’re a Mom who’s at her wit’s end trying to find fun outdoor or physical activities for an adolescent, you’re not alone.
Go camping: You can rent tents, wooden huts, and more on campsites nowadays. Camping is the perfect opportunity to get out of your daily grind for a while with family or friends; plus, kids will have plenty of space to run around and play freely.
Try rock climbing: If you have an adventurous child who loves heights, bring them rock climbing. It’s a great way to enjoy the outdoors and take in some fresh air.
Boating: Renting boats is an excellent way for family members and friends to bond with each other as they take in beautiful views from the water or enjoy recreational activities together.
Go hiking: A day outdoors is a great way to spend time with your family. Try going on long hikes this winter so you can study and research beforehand before heading out there.
