Family picnic as a holiday: outdoor activities

So that you and your loved ones, especially children, do not get bored at the picnic, do not forget to think over exciting games and grab sports equipment.

Quest

If time permits, try organizing a small quest. Be sure that this will delight not only children, but older family members. To do this, you need to inspect the area for a future picnic in advance – a summer cottage, a meadow, a park – and find interesting objects there. Then come up with a list of tasks or puzzles and place them on these objects so that the participants run from one to the other in search of the finish line or prize. There are many options and themes for such quests, choose the most suitable ones. The time is guaranteed to be fun and unforgettable!

Crafts

In a forest or park, you can find a lot of interesting objects – cones, twigs, acorns, seashells by the river, etc. They are perfect for spending time on a picnic: make woodmen, make stylish bouquets of branches and dry herbs, build huts – a real space for imagination !

Exploring the forest

If the child does not often visit the forest, give him a short excursion: tell about tree species, mushrooms and berries, wild animals and birds. Children are very curious and will be glad to hear from you interesting facts about the world around them. It will be useful for you too – refresh your school knowledge.

Sport games

After resting after a delicious lunch, be sure to play outdoor games with your child – badminton, volleyball, frisbee.
