Spring is here! Here are 8 child-friendly springtime activities to enjoy with the whole family.
1. Plant a spring vegetable garden
Gardening with children is oodles of fun. It’s a great way to get outdoors and connect with the earth. Gardening also teaches children valuable skills that will help them as they navigate through life. (It’s amazing what children will eat when they grow it themselves). They’ll be excited as they watch the vegies grow bigger and bigger, and the daily walk out to the veggie patch is always fun for everyone!
5 easy vegetables to grow come springtime are:
- Potatoes
- Peas
- Carrots
- Tomatoes
- Broccoli
2. Have a picnic at your local park.
Head down to your local park and have a picnic! There are many beautiful parks in the US to explore, in fact, there are 423 national park sites to visit… so I guess you could say you’ll be spoilt for choice. (source) You can trust that no matter where you’re located, you’ll be able to pack your picnic basket and make a day of it. Keep the children dry on those days of unpredictable weather by packing a childrens waterproof jacket
3. Spring Camping
Spring is the perfect season for a family camping trip, as the weather begins to clear, and the days get longer. Through the transitional period between Winter to Spring, the weather can be changeable. So, that's why it’s essential that you pack accordingly. Here at Therm, we have a wide selection of childrens rain gear that will be the perfect addition to your family camping trip.
4. Spring snowboarding!
Pack the car up, it’s time to hit the slopes! We know what you’re thinking… snowboarding in spring? But late-season skiing and snowboarding are super popular here in the U.S, with various mountain festivals to visit with good food and music - it’s the ultimate family bonding activity. Here at Therm, we have a range of childrens ski clothes that will keep you warm, dry and protected for a day up the mountain.
5. Go puddle jumping!
There's nothing quite like puddle jumping on a spring day! Those days of sun showers will forever by our favorite, so when it’s your lucky day head outside and jump about in the puddles! Suit the kids up in our childrens waterproof pants and you’ll be good to go! Turn the music on, jump and laugh about. Afternoons like this are good for the soul.
There you have it, five child-friendly spring activities that you and your family can enjoy together. We hope this has given you some inspiration to get out and about this spring.
