An obstacle course
Kids love to compete! Gather the whole family for a great obstacle course. Here are some ideas of easy obstacles you can create yourself:
- Attach the legs of 2 members of each team with a string to do a 3-legged race
- Put an egg on a spoon and race while trying to avoid dropping the egg
- Install a course of old tires in which you can jump in and around
Use your imagination to create original obstacles adapted to your children! They will love to participate in this obstacle course with your family.
Jumping on a trampoline
Jumping on a trampoline is a great way to get kids moving while they are having fun because they love the thrill they get from jumping. Why not learn some new jumps and tricks together so you can show off to your friends later? If you don’t have a trampoline at home, you can visit a trampoline club during their free practice hours.
Climbing
If your kids regularly drive you up the wall, you might want to consider finding a wall climbing gym like Horizon Roc Climbing Center in Montreal that offers 2 climbing rooms and an indoor acrobatic park like Treego with a zip line! What a great way for them to spend their energy!
Bike Ride
Going for a family bicycle ride is a must in the summer and the in-between season's! If your kids are still too young for a tricycle or bicycle, sit them comfortably in a trailer or the booster seat and go for a nice bike ride on a trail and you can even stop for a nice picnic by the water or in a park!
Ball games
Balls, balls, and more balls! Divide your family into two teams, let your children chose a game that interests them and have fun playing in the backyard. Basketball, volleyball, soccer, baseball; all you need is a ball and lots of fun!
