Summer Outing Ideas

Every Toddler loves being outside, and any parent will enjoy watching them discover the world around them. So summer outings are a great idea. Here is a list to get your creativity going and get you thinking of fun outdoor activities to do with your toddler at the park.

The Park

The park is an all-time favorite for any outdoor toddler outing. There is lots of room to run around, you can play on the equipment and it’s free!

*Peek-a-boo: while playing around the equipment, hide behind things and pop out and say peek-a-boo. They’ll catch on quickly and want to take turns being the one who hides.

*Catch: Many toddlers won’t have the coordination to catch a ball quite yet, but they’ll love throwing it!

*Parachute: Take a large blanket with you to the park, put a couple of soft items in it. Show your toddler how to hold the corners, then you hold the other end and pop the items off the blanket.

*Search and find: Take a basket or a bag and help your toddler look for sticks, leaves, flowers and other interesting items to collect. When you are all done looking take them out one by one and look at them and talk about them.
