Get Out and Get Active

By Melanie Rogers, Grade 7

Like some commercials say, Get Outside and Play! The best thing about the spring and summer seasons is the fact that the weather is warm and perfect for running around outside. I know some people may just want to stay inside and play video games or watch T.V. all day, and those people probably don’t realize how fun going outside can be! If you are just hanging out with friends at the local park or taking a bike ride, you still get exercise, and become happy too! You can just invite some close friends to hang out or you could get some people in your neighborhood to come out and play a fun game. Here are some outdoor ideas that will improve you spring and summer seasons!

-Water Gun Wars
-Cops and Robbers
-Capture the Flag
-Sports such as baseball, soccer, or football
-Biking around your neighborhood
-Going to a park with some friends

Make-up your own game or hang out outside after school this spring and summer, and you will have a great time. Just get active in the outdoors!
