Description

A question that comes up from our community again and again, in many forms, is how to get your kid(s) outside...how to inspire your kid(s) to WANT to get outside. 
Here are some of our tips: 
Start them young 
Share YOUR love and energy about the outdoors 
Let them choose the adventure 
Have the mental attitude that it’s supposed to be fun! 
Play games [bring a hammock!] 
Accept their emotions 
Bring along friends 

Some ideas for getting outside after injuries: 
Keep it simple and adventure in the backyard 
Wrap up injury (to avoid getting wet) 
Make use of a wagon! 

We end up talking a lot about the benefits of “Grounding” (also known as “Earthing”) in this episode. Stay tuned for a whole future episode on this topic. Sneak peek: It helps with pain and inflammation.  
Some ideas for volunteering with kids in the outdoors: 
Big Brothers/Big Sisters 
4H 

Balloons mentioned (remember to recycle):  
Zuru BunchO Balloons
