Winter outdoor tips

How to lure your children into nature even on cold days

When winter casts its white splendor over the landscape, covering everything in a beautiful, glittering blanket of snow... or in the less romantic reality: It's dark, cold, and wet, and everyone just wants to stay indoors. So how can you get your kids excited about a trip into nature, even in this weather? Here are three tips for easily getting your kids excited about a trip into nature. Because even in winter, the motto for us is: Get outside!

1. DIY: Ice suncatcher

When the bitter cold transforms the forest into a sparkling winter wonderland and ice crystals adorn the treetops, it's the perfect time to craft a magical ice suncatcher. Using collected natural treasures, you'll not only create small works of art but also conjure up a mesmerizing play of light that sparkles in the winter sun. The instructions for making the ice picture on our foundation's website show you step-by-step how.

2. Forest Gnome

With this outdoor tip, you can transform your kids into little forest gnomes! These curious, playful nature spirits love adventures – just like your little ones. On your next walk in the woods, collect lots of colorful leaves and craft your own forest gnome costume or create a sweet collage as a memento of your last walk in the woods. A wonderful craft idea for the kids' room and the perfect Christmas gift for grandma and grandpa! You can find the detailed instructions on our foundation's website.

3. Winter picnic with children's punch

A winter picnic in the woods is a great way to get the kids outside even in the colder months! With a homemade winter punch to warm you from the inside and a few delicious snacks in the basket, nothing stands in the way of your winter picnic. Make it cozy outdoors, even on cold days! Discover the recipe for children's punch on our foundation's website and give it a try.
