Adventures happen every day.
They aren’t necessarily an “event” that requires a lot of
planning or foresight to make happen.
Granted, some camping trips, backpacking trips or longer hikes certainly
require thinking ahead a little (or a lot), BUT we easily forget about those
moments of discovery and exploration that are so crucial to connecting with the
world around us.
Helping foster exploration, creativity and wonder in kids is
as important as it is easy, because they LOVE to discover. My boys can sit in front of a pile of
dirt and be content for hours.
As a family, we make it a habit to get into the woods and
just do some exploring as often as we can.
No agenda. No
destination. No rules. And more often than not, no
trails. Just eyes-open, ears
in-tune and taking in the beauty of nature with each breath.
