Take A Child Outside Week
Do something outdoors with your kids. 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.

If you are looking for something else to do with your child, how about going to your local playground. Find one at playspacefinder.kaboom.org. If you don't see one in your area, add one.
