Spring Activities with the Piggyback Rider
Posted by The Piggyback Rider Team on 7th Mar 2019
Spring is right around the corner and for most of the country this means warmer days and fewer winter storms (hopefully).. As the temperatures start to climb, families with little ones can finally shed those winter coats and venture out into the world to enjoy the outdoors once again. As a new season approaches, you can start to plan what you and your child will do this spring.
Play in the Rain
Whether you head out to play in the rain or find yourself stuck in a surprise storm, it’s the perfect time to pull out your Piggyback Rider to pull the little one’s close. If you do get caught in a storm, you don’t have to worry about your child slipping in puddles or getting their clothes soaked. The Piggyback Rider also features six points of contact to secure your child!
Plant a Garden
The best time to plant flowers or fresh veggies is early spring. Ask your child what they would like to grow this year and head to your local hardware store or nursery to pick up seeds, bulbs or pre-planted flowers. Get the family together to create something that you can benefit from all year long!
Fly Kites
Head on down to your local park or playground with kites to make the most of these windy March afternoons. Using the Piggyback Rider can give your child an advantage because they can get higher than ever to catch the most wind. Take a break from the carrier and see who can get their kite the highest for a fun family competition.
Visit Your Favorite Local Attraction
For many regions, winter weather causes the most fun local attraction to shut down for the season. When spring finally arrives, places like zoos and hiking trails open back up for your enjoyment. Take a weekend to get back to your family’s favorite spot and make new memories in 2019. Don’t forget the Piggyback Rider when your toddler needs to rest or if you want to go that extra mile!
Hunt for Blooming Foliage
Trees and flowers will begin blooming soon! This is the perfect time to play your own version of foliage bingo. On your next walk or hike, take pictures of all the blooming flowers and see how many you can identify. Using the Piggyback Rider, you can encourage your child to spot the blooms in the trees. How many can you find?
While we always encourage families to get outdoors all year long, there is something so special about the Springtime! Grab your Piggyback Rider and get outside to enjoy the warmer weather and maybe a few rain storms. Get your carrier online today.
