Living the "online" life of a blogger has many advantages, but one of the BIG disadvantages is more time on computer = less time being active (the dreaded "blogger ten"). I am on the hunt to start exercising again, my first step was purchasing a new pair of running shoes. The next step was finding more outside activities I can do with my kids away from the computer. Combing time with kids and exercising is the best of both worlds.
Today we participated in an activity I had on my list: Kayaking. My 6 year old twins are old enough to help with the rowing – and my husband and I each take one with us on a two person kayak. While we are kayaking my older son enjoys Windsurfing.
I even left my BlackBerry in the car during the Kayaking <gulp>. Sad but true, it was hard for me unplug.
I am looking for other outside family activities other then bike rides, scootering and hiking – which we do already. We also do this game called "wrestling on the grass", which comes naturally for my house-of-3-boys. But mama prefers not to wrestle.
Any other ideas for outside family activities?
That is all for now, back outside to spend time with the kiddies…
Blogs are so interactive where we get lots of informative on any topics nice job keep it up !!
