Why outside helps
Green time resets attention and stress. Short, nearby adventures are easier to repeat than big day trips—and just as bonding.
The micro‑plan
Pick a close spot (park/stream), bring one snack, one prompt ("What was most surprising this week?"), and one tiny goal (leaf map, sound hunt).
Make it stick
Mark the outing in Mom&Dad Tracker as a 'micro‑adventure'. Review photos at dinner and let kids pick next week's goal.
