Parenting Tip
The Winter months can be a tricky time for families, stuck inside on grey, wet or cold days. All over the world, Forest Schools are popping up that adhere to the saying “There is no bad weather, only bad clothes.”
This idea is simple–when kids are properly dressed, they can safely and joyfully explore the world outside. These schools hold classes outside all year round and simply ask that kids come dressed appropriately for the weather.
While I know every parent should win a Nobel Peace Prize for getting a 2-year-old dressed to go out in the snow, I’d encourage you, whenever possible, to still spend some time outside. Even when it’s cold or rainy, kids still find enjoyment splashing in puddles and making snow angels.
