Advice from the Experts
With
the growing popularity of
indoor toys and games getting
kids outdoors into nature
is now more important than
ever! If you think about
it, being outside is a great
way to stimulate all our
senses, get our brain to
be more active and exercise
our bodies. Yet is is also
a great way to focus our
attention and calm our brain
from the daily overload
of sounds and lights we
seem to be constantly exposed
to.
If
you can try to get outdoors
with your kids every day-
even if only for a short
period of time. If you prefer
structured activities you
can visit your nearby park.
In Newark, White Clay Creek
State Park offers weekday
and weekend programs for
adults, families and kids.
