Map where activities will occur in the yard. A lawn area may be the site of soccer, bocce ball, or croquet, but it can also double as an overnight camping zone for the kids in a family tent.
Assess what you have and consider their creative uses. Lounge chairs, sports, and play equipment can be used for their original purposes, but they can also become part of an amazing obstacle course.
Spruce up your yard. Mow the lawn and trim the bushes. Tidy overgrown areas. Add flowering plants and rearrange planters for visual appeal.
Organize for fun. Identify zones for different activities.
Use the opportunity to learn about backyard wildlife and nature. Ask kids to take an inventory of the many birds, butterflies, and other wildlife they see, looking up their species and background. Put up a bird feeder or plant a butterfly garden, as well as potted flowering plants to support birds and pollinators. Add wind chimes, rain collectors, or backyard thermometers, and wind gauges to help kids observe science in action. (Visit TurfMutt.com for a variety of backyard lesson plans that are free and STEM-aligned.)
