The great outdoors is nature's playground.
It's FREE, it's FUN, and it's FOR EVERYONE!
Unfortunately, times have changed and people aren't getting out as much as they used to and it's affecting our kids.
FACT: The negative impact of decreased time outdoors includes a doubling of the childhood obesity rate.
This makes supporting the National Wildlife Federation so important. They encourage kids to....
"BE OUT THERE!"
"Some people say it takes a village to raise a child. We say it takes a backyard, a park, a playground."

I watched the video. Very cute! : )
April 25, 2011 at 7:52 PMIt's been pretty easy to get my kids outdoors, after the long, cold, BORING, winter. Lately, I've just grabbed a pack of flower seeds, given them each an old spoon, and we have walked up our long driveway, planting flowers where ever the kids think they will look nice.
I took the pledge at Scott and entered to win.
