Outdoor Fun- Go To The Park

We love going to the park. We have missed the park these past few months where it has been too hot to go. But now, the weather will be nice for months and we can make up for lost time.

The park is a great place for preschoolers. Not only are they working those large motor skills climbing, jumping, swinging, and running, they are also developing social relationships by learning to talk and play with people they don't know.

The park closest to us is a neighborhood park. There is a large piece of equipment shaped like a boat and a village. Both of mine can navigate almost all the equipment without me, so it is a nice time to sit back and watch them. There are many neighbor kids that are always looking for the friend of the day. My son is not so used to rambunctious little boys, so it is a learning experience for him to interact with them.

And my kids love it, until it is time to go home. Then we have to fight all the way to the car. How soon they forget what a joyous time they were having when they are screaming in the car seat!
