School’s out and summer is a great motivater to be outdoors and keep the kids actively playing. Our family tends to do more outdoor sports and visits to the playground when the sun’s out. Regardless of the weather, there are several ways you can keep the kids active and physically moving, indoors or out. We’ve gathered some of the more unique toys around to keep the kids moving beyond traditional bikes and scooters. Take a look and let us know in the comments some of your favorite ways to keep the kids active!
