How To Get Kids Off The Couch And Outdoors This Summer


Listen Later

In this podcast, Dr. Jordan describes how to get your family off on the right foot this summer, starting with firing yourself as their entertainment director. Plan fun activities together that they choose, create a car ride and bored bag filled with things they choose to do when they are bored, and plan lots of time outdoors with activities like hikes, campfires, bird watching, and star gazing. Dr. Jordan includes lots of examples of possible activities you can do with your children.
