Whether you're spending time in your own backyard, venture out into the woodlands or to the beach, we've all experienced how the outdoors blows away the cobwebs and nourishes the soul. Being outside has this amazing capability of both energizing and relaxing us at the same time. Here you find my best resources for a refreshing time outside:

on outdoor activities for kids and parents alike

- because the world is our classroom - 

One in six fathers say they do not know how to play with their child, according to a survey carried out by Playmobil UK. Apparently many parents struggle to fill the day with activities. Especially before kids can walk & talk properly, parents can be at a loss how to occupy their baby. And sadly, a baffling number of 9 out of 10 parents turn to electronic toys to entertain their offspring. 

My advice whenever you're struggling? Go outside!

When exposed to a fresh new environment, inspiration comes pouring in. Games and activities hand themselves on a shiny silver platter. Racing each other downhill during a mountainous walk. Playing a game of tag on the central village square. Combing the beach for seashells or tracking forest trails for footprints.

Best thing is, it doesn't require much effort (and usually, no money!). All you have to do, is get out there and let your new surroundings do the rest.
