Outdoor seasonal activities for kids in each and every season!
Mud play is one of our favorite things to do in the springtime! If given the chance, all kids are instinctively good at mud pies. Maybe you’ve even seen some of the awesome mud kitchen ideas floating around. This week, we were looking for something a little bit different to do with our mud. So …

Now that winter is here and food can be scarce for animals, we thought it would be fun to decorate an outdoor tree with some easy diy bird feeders for kids!
