Autumn is here. This means that the weather is starting to get cooler and that the vacation season is over. Kids are back to school and are spending more time with their books (hopefully). However, this does not mean that you should stop encouraging them to be active. In fact, now is the best time to enjoy some fall fun before the end-of-term school tests arrive. After all, life for children should not be just studies and classes. Here are some fun fall activities for kids you may try out together this autumn.
Halloween Preparation and Crafts
Halloween is so close! Before going on a shopping spree for Halloween costumes and decorations, try to engage your kids in some themed crafts. For example, try to make the spookiest Halloween decorations together. Also, you can come even try different candy recipes and prepare the holiday treats yourself. October will be much more fulfilling for all with such fall activities for kids.
On a Walk or Hike
While going on a walk or a hike during the summer is not the smartest or safest thing you can do, especially in Dubai, a fall walk or hike can be very healthy. Put on a pair of comfortable shoes and sportswear and pick an interesting trail in your area. Show your kids that how fun exploring can be.
A Drive around the Country
If you think that a few-hour walk or hike can be too tiring for your children (or for you), then get in the car. Drive to the countryside and enjoy the breathtaking desert scenery. Make sure you make regular stops and take enough drinks with you.
Go to the Park
Parents, who are too busy working, can try another alternative. Simply take your kids to the closest park. However, instead of just passing through it or sitting on a bench for a while, do something different. For example, you can propose your children to make a drawing. Also, you can let them practice their early photography skills and let them take pictures of the birds and the plants in the park. Dubai Creek Park is a great place and offer a variety of fall-activities for kids.
Fall can be really fun! Do your best to prove that to your children. Spend more time together and engage them in fall activities that will keep them away from the computer screen.
