Take A Child Outside Week

It’s Take A Child Outside Week, so take a look at these great ideas for things to do outside and put one into action as a family. Going outside helps reduce the chances of obesity, helps kids stay focused in school, and allows them to connect with the natural world around them. Find an organization near you that is participating in taking children outside and plan a trip. You could even come up with your own natural outings so others in your community can participate. Working together as communities to encourage being outside means we’ll have healthier, happier kids.
