Do you desire for your children to be healthy during the cold-weather months? Do you seize the opportunities to get outdoors during inclement weather days? Or do you go into hibernation mode?

In this episode we are

  • Shifting our Winter Mindset
  • Taking Action
  • Exploring Nature in Winter

Instead of saying and getting stuck with a negative mindset:

  • “I don’t know what to do when we get outdoors.”
  • “We can go outdoors in Winter because the kids get too cold.”
  • “The kids don’t have the proper gear, so it is impossible.”
  • “It takes too long to get outdoors in Winter, it’s easier to stay indoors.”
  • “I am always cold, I can’t be outdoors.” 

Change your mindset to say,

  • “Where are the opportunities outdoors for children to Explore Nature in Winter?”
