May is coming to an end and June is right around the corner. May is a perfect month to enjoy the nice weather and to have some quality time with family. The weather is so nice, and Spring can be a busy month as we prepare for Summer. Here are some activities to do as a family to transition into warmer days ahead.
With the warmer weather, take your family outside. Go on a walk together or a bike ride. Going outside for ten minutes a day and exercising in some small way, could improve your mental health tremendously.
Another way to enjoy the nice weather is to have a family game night in the backyard. There are tons of options to choose from. Cornhole, Yahtzee, Dominos, Putt-Putt, Twister and so much more! A little family competition is fun!
Movie nights are always fun as a family. From Disney to Marvel, there are so many classics! To spice things up, buy a mini projector and create an outdoor movie theater for the kids. They will love it.
Another outdoor activity is to go camping. Visit your local state park and plan a trip to go camping, when it is allowed, or set a tent in your backyard. Backyard camping is always fun. Don’t forget to bring marshmallows to roast on the campfire.
One of the most rewarding activities to do with your children is to just spend quality time with them. Interview your kids and just talk with them. Ask them questions. By “interviewing” your kids, you will form a connection with them and connections lead to relationships. Talk about your childhood memories with them. The stories you tell your children will stay with them forever.
These activities are all simple ways to spend time with your family. Spending quality time with your family will form more connections and connections leads to stronger relationships. Enjoy the nice weather and time spent with loved ones.
