Family Activity

Go on a nature hike. Hunt for roly-polies, lizards, newts, ladybugs, grasshoppers, beetles, butterflies, etc. whatever wildlife is in your region. You can check out a bird book from your library and find bird species. You can stop and have a picnic. You can put colored pencils and paper in your backpack. Then your children can draw pretty pictures of nature when you stop for lunch. If you plan to picnic on the ground, bring lightweight, hardback picture books to place the drawing paper on. It will make drawing easier.
