Find a field filled with wildflowers and go bananas with selfies or family portraits (they might come in handy during the season of holiday cards). Use the blog Simple Tips for Snapping Perfect Outdoor Pics to step up your photography game.

Find a flowering shrub or budding tree in your yard. Tie a piece of string on it to mark a spot. Then take your kiddos for daily observations to watch the regrowth in spring.

When was the last time you ran around the park with a kite tail blowing in the wind? Take time to marvel in the moment of the kite bobbing and dancing with the wind. You can make your own kite with the kiddos or make it a competition among friends to see who creates the most artistic kite or who builds one that flies the highest.

Wait for the perfect easy drizzle to don your rain boots. Then take some time to splash around in puddles. You might get the side eye from a few neighbors, but chances are they’re secretly envying your playful spirit.
