Walking is an excellent form of exercise that has
significant health benefits, and can be enjoyed at almost any age. But getting kids excited for a walk is
another story of course. What are some
ways parents can convince a child to tear themselves away from the latest video
game and enjoy some time outdoors?
First, don’t call it a walk!
Don’t ask “Shall we go for a walk?” Say, “Who wants to explore the
forest?”
Also, children love places with lots to look at and things
to clamber over: dunes, trees, streams, beaches.
Another idea is to give your child a cheap camera and get
them interested in two things at once, photography and outdoor exploration.

outdoors and moving, visit the following website:
