Free and Green Activities for Families

When it comes to family time, green activities allow you to go casual instead of commercial, and feed your children's need for nature while you're at it. Here's one cliché well worth believing and embracing: the best things in life-and childhood-truly are free.

Create seasonal traditions. Make a commitment to celebrating the seasons by choosing at least one tradition, per season, to enjoy as a family. With ideas like snowshoeing on New Year's Eve, camping on Labor Day, and leaf-raking with a s'mores party in the fall, the options are endless.
