27 More fun activities to do outside


  1. Go on a nature walk. Look for things that start with each letter of the alphabet. You can jot them in a notebook, or take a picture of each one.
  2. Catch lightning bugs.
  3. Draw a “road”, or path on the road with chalk. Make it winding, curvy, and challenging. Make it just wide enough to ride a bike through. Let the kiddos try to ride their bikes through the path without going out of the lines.
  4. Play I Spy
  5. Make some campsite rocks or stepping stones. Find some cool, flat, large rocks. If it’s hot enough, just let them sit out in the sun for an hour or so. If it’s not that hot, stick them in the oven for 5-10 minutes. Take them out, careful to mind the heat. Use crayons to draw on the hot rocks… makes a very cool effect.  You can make a name rock for your campsite, or just draw cool designs.
