I had the pleasure of joining this gaggle of cute kids on a multi-family camping trip to Green Valley Lake, and of course I had to come up with a crafty twist on outdoor activities for the weekend.
Wether you are in the woods or your own backyard, get inspired with these three super simple nature activity ideas to get your kids exploring, creating, and coming home with magical memories of their time with you in the great outdoors.
