Keeping kids entertained isn't so hard!
If you have kids, grandkids or nieces and nephews, you no doubt know that they're off for the summer. You are also expecting to hear at any given moment: "I'm bored!". Now's the time to take the child in your life by the hand, and foster a love of nature in them. Here are some ways to get your kids outside - and enjoying every second of it:
• head to a farm and pick strawberries or blueberries
• take them to a butterfly conservatory
• go to a park with a pair of binoculars and look for birds
• plan a weekend camping trip (learn about being a green camper here!)
• take them for a hike
• teach them about local plants and bring them to a park and help them identify some of the more common ones (the same can be done with animals)
• The Perseids Meteor Shower takes place in August, so grab a blanket and some refreshments and spend some time watching our aw-inspiring sky
How do you keep the kid in your life entertained all summer long?
