Take your kids to a park or forest and look for a strong, sturdy, safe tree for them to climb. Avoid trees with fungus growing on them, and keep a look out for animals and nests, too. As they climb up through the branches make sure they keep three points of contact with the tree at all times –– either two feet and a hand, or two hands and a foot. Once they’ve reached a safe, high-up point, make sure they take a good look around –– it’s a chance to take in nature from a new point of view!
