What are some family-friendly hiking activities we can do this weekend?

There are plenty of fun family-friendly hiking activities! You could try a nature scavenger hunt, where everyone looks for specific plants, animals, or rocks along the trail.

That sounds fun! How do we set up a scavenger hunt?

You can create a list of items to find, like a pine cone, a specific flower, or a bird. Give each family member a copy, and whoever finds the most items wins a small prize!

What if my kids get tired during the hike?

It's a good idea to plan shorter hikes or take plenty of breaks. You can also bring snacks and water to keep their energy up!

Any tips for keeping them engaged during the hike?

Try storytelling or playing games like 'I Spy' to keep them engaged. You can also encourage them to take photos of interesting things they see!
