11 Physical activities for kids of any age

Again, I had this all ready for summer but now is as good a time as any. Probably don't go swimming unless you have a pool at your house. I doubt  you'd be able to find an open pool anyway. Depending on where you are slip and slide and water fight might be questionable as well. 

Physical

All people need to move their bodies. This helps keep us healthy. Our bodies were made to move. Bonus if we are moving outside! Hopefully we can do some activities as a family, but individually is important too.

1. Go for a hike (plan a hike for the family)
2. Go swimming (plan a swimming trip since unfortunately we do not have a pool)
3. Go geocaching
4. Go for a walk
5. Do some yoga
6. Go for a bike ride
7. Play a sport
8. Do some kind of workout video
9. Have a nerf gun war 
10. Have a water fight

Social activities and goals

Social

We need people! We need the interaction. We need to get outside of ourselves. Serving is an excellent way to be social and feed our spirit (double whammy). The youth struggle with social interactions. Face to face interactions. They are so used to communicating through a device they don't know how to communicate in real life.
