Fraser Health - Spring Actvities
Get outside and play!
Physical activity is a necessary requirement for optimal health. Regular physical activity in childhood and adolescence helps to develop cardiovascular fitness and muscle strength, supports positive social connections and improves mental well-being.
There are many benefits to unstructured play. These benefits are even greater when engaging in physical activity outdoors. When children and youth spend time outside, they:
- Sit less, move more and play longer – key to cardiovascular health and fitness.
- Have healthier eyes – spending more time outside reduces nearsightedness risks.
- Sleep better – sunlight helps regulate sleep hormones and sleep patterns.
- Enjoy improved mood – physical activity can reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression.
- Feel more connected to nature – appreciation of the environment and being in nature can support healthy and balanced emotions.
Planning active outings doesn’t have to be challenging or costly. Here are some fun ideas you can try:
- Try a new activity – check out geocaching or attend a local explorer day with NatureKidsBC.
- Unplug and connect – ideas to decrease recreational screen time.
- Go for a scavenger hunt – try this nature scavenger hunt.
- Go for a walk or hike – try these 10 hikes to take your kids on this summer.
- Play in a forest or park – try a new regional park every day for a week.
- Explore a local stream – check these beautiful watershed walks in the region. Learn about water safety for children.
- Swim at the pool, waterpark or beach – check beach safety conditions first or stay cool at a local spray park.
- Ride a bike or scooter – explore the Hope Bike Park or check out these rides along Boundary Bay, Pitt Meadows or Vedder Greenway. Learn more about cycling safety on Fraser Health’s website.
- Visit farms, fish hatcheries and bird sanctuaries – try this local family fun guide for unique ideas.
