Comments on: Schools out: Play outdoors with your kids http://www.alittlegreenereveryday.com/2009/04/schools-out-play-outdoors-with-your.html Some useful information, some anecdotes, some rantings, and some inspiration <br>from my quest to make my family and perhaps the world around me A Little Greener Every Day Mon, 13 Dec 2010 22:42:32 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1.3 By: Gina http://www.alittlegreenereveryday.com/2009/04/schools-out-play-outdoors-with-your.html/comment-page-1#comment-566 Gina Mon, 13 Apr 2009 17:34:00 +0000 http://aged.shreeves.net/2009/04/schools-out-play-outdoors-with-your-kids.html#comment-566 This is a great post & I hope more parents spread the word that kids (heck, us too!) need more times outdoors, especially in nature. Their bodies need to move & get all that fresh air goodness for a long list of reasons. We live in Oregon and have nature all around so it's pretty easy but, still, so many tend to stay inside when it's wet or grey. Thanks for giving parents new ideas in your area!

Over spring break this week I was able to enjoy some mountain biking with my son in one of the national parks out here. We're looking forward to getting some canoes when we move and enjoying some of the many waterways in New Jersey. We live in Southern Arizona and are moving to New Jersey this summer.

I never got to go on any of them, but they sounded awesome. One of them, they taught the kids how to scrounge up materials in the wilderness and build a makeshift shelter. Very cool.
