Are you worried that homeschooling your kids could mean they’re not spending enough time in the fresh air? Are your kids more likely to plant themselves in front of a screen rather than heading outdoors? If so, they may be at risk for nature-deficit disorder, which can contribute to obesity, depression, and attention difficulties in children. Fortunately, there are tons of fun ideas for getting your kids some outdoor time, whether you’re hitting a hiking trail, riding bikes, or just throwing the frisbee around in your backyard.
