There are many ways that you can
get involved. Make sure you have a family meeting to find a project
that you can all get excited about.
Here are some simple activity ideas:
1.
Planting daffodils. October is the perfect
time to plant bulbs, the whole family can take part in gentle
exercise outside. And you can bring the children back in the
springtime to see what a difference they've made to their local
environment.
2. If you'd rather be indoors then you could try
baking
cakes as a family. Perhaps a grandparent will have a
recipe they can hand down to the grandchildren. You can then donate
these cakes to a retirement home and befriend some of the
residents.
3. Playing bingo or other games. Your children could organise a
bingo afternoon at an retirement home.
Still not sure what to do? Our activity locator offers you the
chance to find projects in your area that are child friendly. So
after July, keep returning to see how your whole family can get
involved.
