Outdoor Play: a Great Way for Kids to get Outside and using
Their Imagination
"Summer is a wonderful time of year when children can enjoy
lots of fresh air and outdoor play. There is certainly no
shortage of excellent activities, toys and accessories to
entertain and inspire children of all ages."
Some of the favorite activities among kids include; bubbles,
inflatable bouncers and play sets, kites and wind spinners,
outdoor furniture, playhouses and play tents, pools and water
fun, and sandboxes and beach toys.
Bubbles are one of those outdoor activities that can be enjoyed
by babies to adults. Blowing bubbles has never had quite so many
options to choose from as it does today. There are plastic
bubble lawn mowers, bubble catchers, bubble vision glasses,
bubble wands, bubble lights, wands for small to super huge
bubbles, no spill bubble buckets, monster bubble blowers, bubble
blizzards (that blow nonstop bubbles) and bubble blowers
available in popular fictional characters and a myriad of colors
and styles. Blowing bubbles is an inexpensive way to have hours
of outdoor fun.
One of the most exciting types of play for young children
involves using the wide variety of inflatable bouncers and play
sets on the market. Your backyard will be the center of activity
if you set up one of these wonderful toys. Inflatable bouncers
can be purchased in several different sizes from large (9 feet
by 9 feet by 6 feet high) able to accommodate several children
to small bouncers that only hold two children. Deluxe bouncers
offer a fun and safe play environment with continuous air flow
for safety and puncture resistant heavy gauge vinyl. There is a
wide selection of designs such as castles, popular fictional
character themes, inflatable fire engines, school buses,
climbing walls, inflatable cars, inflatable play centers and
playhouses. Several of the inflatable toys come with soft balls
included for tossing, kicking and pushing around within the
structure.
Kites, wind spinners and windsocks are a wonderful way for you
and your child to interact and enjoy a lovely outdoor activity.
The beautiful colors, designs and sizes available will surely be
remembered for years to come. Kites can be purchased in an
endless array of designs to include; airplanes with spinning
propellers, helicopters, birds (flamingos and parrots), sharks,
dolphins, butterflies, hummingbirds, fish, dragons, cellular box
kites, dolphin kites, sailboats, cellular kites, diamond kites,
parasail kites and tri-planes to only name a few. Wind spinners
and windsocks come in as many designs as do the kites, in an
assortment of fantastic colors and patterns.
Children can enjoy the same comfort that adults do when it comes
to outdoor furniture. Whether it be having lunch at their
favorite plastic or wooden picnic table or lounging back in
their adirondack chair, it
