Explore the Outdoors this Summer
The Ohio Department of Natural resources kicks off the Explore the outdoors Kids’ program today at Alum Creek State park in Central Ohio. Among the stats they are combating:
- Kids today spend twice as much time each year in front of a screen than they do at school.
- 60 percent of kids 2-5 have NO access to outdoor play.
- State Parks have experienced a 10-20 percent drop in visitation.
Download an activity guide for your kids and complete eight of the ten activities at a posted state park or preserve. Codes are posted at these locations. Enter the codes into your book and your child will get a signed certificate from Governor Strickland.
