If you have smaller children, you may need to guide their outdoor activities more than you would with older kids. So, why not create a treasure hunt in your back garden? You can make a cool pirate map and decorate it for the kids. Give them clues about where treats and sweets will be hiding. Get them to solve riddles, or complete an obstacle course so that they ‘earn’ their treats. It will keep them active and giggly all spring long, but it’s great for family bonding too.
