Are you ready for a Spring Outdoor Challenge!?

Spring has sprung and with that it means great weather is arriving. So I’m springing our little family out of the confines of our own home after hibernating this winter and we’re ready for a Spring Outdoor Challenge.

Every year winter comes in and seems like it restricts us to our home. As much as I try to get us out and doing activities at indoor places, nothing truly beats the fresh air and magic of really being outdoors. There’s something remarkable that happens with your mood when you are able to open the windows, hear the birds chirping, see fresh cherry blossoms, and start getting your hands into the soil again to grow your garden.  I notice that winter completely drains my girls too, even at such a young age, and how delighted their faces are when we get to go outside day after day again.

So this spring, I want to motivate you to get outside and get your own kids (and yourself) active with us! We have a goal to be outside for a minimum of one hour,three days a week. I, mostly likely, will be in the garden, while the girls are chasing each other around and playing on the swing set on most days. However, we also have a spring bucket list of places we want to get too as well! So can you join me in that goal?

To make it easier for you, I’ve created this Spring Outdoor Challenge with FREE Printable! In our challenge, we give you 10 places to go, 10 things to find, and 10 things to take a picture of your littles doing. It’s a fun way to enjoy nature even more! And who doesn’t love a challenge!?

Before we get into the challenge, let me first give you a little PSA – PLEASE KEEP HYDRATED! When you are out, even in cool weather, it’s easy for you, and especially littles to get dehydrated. We are loving our Contigo AUTOSEAL® Chill Spill-Proof Water Bottle. Our Contigo water bottle is BPA free, comes with a carry handle for easier carry, keeps drinks cold up to 28 hours with their Thermalock™ vacuum insulation, and comes with Auto seal technology, so it knows when to close™, meaning leak AND spill proof!

Now let’s have a spring outdoor challenge!

    This is so fun! I don’t have kids but I love the idea of a challenge to not only get out of the house, but one that also gives IDEAS on what to do once you’re out there!! 🙂
