As spring blooms and the winter frost thaws, children start itching to get outside. It’s important to find the right activities for every individual child, as some activities just don’t work for every kid. Some kids love reading, and others love fishing, but no two kids are alike!

We want to share with you three of our favorite activities that kids love and that you might want to give a try with your own children!

Plan to Plant Spring Flowers

Springtime is the perfect time to start planning for planting some beautiful Spring flowers. No matter how old your children are, there is a good chance that they will love getting their hands dirty to plant something. From preschool to well into high school, kids of all ages love the feeling of changing the landscape into something a little more beautiful. The hard work involved leaves them feeling happy and accomplished

Enjoy Nature Activities

We know this may seem a little vague, but there are so many things that you can do with kids outdoors that they love. Hiking on a trail that matches a difficulty level appropriate for your child can be a lot of fun. Even if they get a little tired, sitting down for lunch in nature after a short hike endows them with a sense of accomplishment as well as gets them a breath of fresh air.

Fishing and camping are also an option for some more adventurous kids. Most of the time you can find a camping spot that isn’t too far away from home but that your kids will still love!

Share Your Music

As your kids get older, they start to develop a real taste for music. Spring break offers a good time for you to share your taste of music with them that you have developed over the years as well as a chance for your kids to show you what they are interested in. This builds a relationship and trust between children and parents that can also be done while doing another activity like camping!
