Sunny Solutions: Getting Kids Active and Out of the House! 
Struggling to peel your kids away from screens and get them moving? You’re not alone! Encouraging kids to be active doesn’t have to feel like a chore—here are some simple ideas to help make it fun for everyone:
Make It a Family Affair: Plan activities you can do together, like a family hike, bike ride, or even a dance-off in the living room. Kids love when parents join the fun!
Turn Chores Into Challenges: Rake leaves? Turn it into a jumping pile game. Water plants? Let them spray with the hose! Everyday tasks can double as playtime.
Organize Mini Adventures: Explore a new park, nature trail, or local playground. A change of scenery keeps things exciting!
Set Up Backyard Games: Try obstacle courses, scavenger hunts, or classic games like tag and hide-and-seek. Bonus: No need to leave home!
Make It Social: Invite friends over for an outdoor playdate or join a kids’ sports league. Having peers around makes being active more enticing.
Bonus Hack: Dress the Part
Let them pick out fun workout clothes or sneakers they love—it can make movement feel like a special event!
