Bird Watching and Other Outdoor Activities for Children (part 1 of 2)



Bird watching is one of the outdoor activities that can be enjoyed by both parents and children. It is one among numerous activities that children can engage in where they can expand their horizon educationally and improve their social skills.

Kids can enjoy nature trips like hiking.  Hiking is not only good for the children but it also provide the necessary exercise adults should be doing.  Hiking can be done throughout the year, well almost.  During spring, it is a great season for looking for the first flowers of the season and observing birds which are in flight during this season.

During summer, animals are most active in this season.  Children can observe and sport squirrels in the trees and other animals.  Autumn would be the season for pine cones, acorns, seeds and other items for collection. Winter is not the friendly season.  But even in this harsh weather, hiking can still be regarding.  Children can learn how to examine animal tracks and their food intake during this season.

Aside from nature hiking, wildlife watching is also a hit among kids.  Just like bird watching, all you need is just good eyesight and a green area. Similar to bird watching there are field guides where you can identify the animals that you have seen.  Just make sure that the wild things are kept in the wild.

Snowshoeing is a great recreation sport with the kids during wintertime.  Just be sure that the children are properly covered with warm clothes before they heat out the door.
