If you are looking for ways to entertain yourself and/or your children without having to stay indoors, then you have come to the right place. My wife and I, by nature, are outdoorsy folks and whenever we can, time and weather permitting, we love to be outdoors.
This article will highlight some great activities to do outside for both you and your children.
One thing that is always fun to do if it is a hot day is cool off in the water. Whether you have a swimming pool, a beach, river or a lake close by, it is always an unbelievably refreshing feeling to jump into some cold water.
One great way to get some solid exercise while enjoying the scenery of the outdoors is to go on a hike. Whether it's a simple trail or a challenging ascent, find something within the physical constraints of you and your kids, that will be difficult, but rewarding.
Another exciting activity if you have a body of water close by is to go kayaking. Kayaking requires a good amount of upper body strength, yet can be a very peaceful activity if you are doing so on a placid lake.
If you are simply looking to have a good time in the backyard, get a game of football going. If you don't have the space for it, improvise and come up with a similar style of game that requires some level of cardio activity to provide you with a little bit of a workout.
One last activity that I will mention, which can certainly be performed in any backyard area, big or small, is gardening. Having a garden grow is a rewarding feeling and well as a great way to combat stress.
These are just some of the many activities you can do outside. Use your imagination and get out there!
