50 Hours Outside: April

Spring is officially here - the sun is shining, the days are warm, and it’s time to get outside! Being outdoors has endless benefits from improving mood to helping you unplug to decreasing stress and anxiety. It is also just FUN!  

To help you and your family make it a goal to get outside this year, we have created this chart for you! The goal is 50 hours outside! For each hour your family spends outside, color in one space in the chart. Let’s see if you can fill in all the spaces! Download the coloring sheet here.

Need some inspiration on how to increase your time outside?

Here are a few ideas to get you started: 

  1. Get your friends involved – Everything is better with family and friends! You can head to the pool, have a BBQ, or plan a camping trip to increase your time outside while spending time with the people you love.

  2. Head to a new place – Why not use this as an opportunity to do a little adventuring? You could check out a new hiking trail, road trip to the beach, or find an interesting, walkable city near you. 

  3. Play a sport – Sports are a fun and easy way to get moving and get outside. This could even be an opportunity to start a family kickball tournament!
