Snow tag
If you are lucky enough to have snow where you live you have so many opportunities for fun outdoor play.
Now in the winter it is important to be in motion when you play outside, so you keep yourself and your kids warm. It is the winter that is our peak season here in activekidsclub.com. There is so much to do; it is only our imagination that stops us.

Winter thermos picnic
It is snowing in Toronto today. Some may think that is proof of the picnic season being officially over. Of course, that is not true for us at Activekidsclub.com and for you. Many of our most memorable picnics have been alfresco, in the snow.
In our outdoor playgroups, the snacks and picnics are a very important part of the gathering. Bringing some good food and some hot chocolate is an important treat after your explorers have a little hike or are just out for some good old fashion play.

Happy New Year !
We have had a wonderful holiday in Florida; it is so strange that we have so many different climates on this big continent. Being able to pick your own oranges from a tree and then squeeze orange juice is such a cool thing to do for an outdoor kid from the North.

Christmas card from Florida
We wish all our readers a happy holidays. This year, we are spending Christmas in Florida with family. Looks like we are going to be blessed with wonderful summer weather.
We have taken a boat trip on the beautiful Crystal River, a natural river on the west coast in Florida. My 7 year old even got to try kayaking alone for the first time. Most of our time here in Florida will be spent on the boat with lots of kayaking and swimming with the manatees in the river.

Road tripping and camping as a family in Europe
This past summer, my husband and I took our two young daughters on a month-long road trip around western Europe. It’s become our annual tradition since we moved to Italy four years ago, and as usual, we slept in the large popup tent we’ve affectionately dubbed our summer home. One night, however, after an especially long day of travel, we splurged on a hotel room. We didn’t feel like setting up camp, and the convenience of ready-made beds seemed worth the extra cost. Within a few minutes after checking in though, we realized it had been a mistake.
