And I have been trying very hard to constantly introduce outdoor education to the children when ever possible, but I have gotten to the point in my material that the activities are getting stale. I am looking for some new ideas to use with the kids. The hard part is the groups run about an hour and the facility is in town. Some of the activities that I have used. Knots Tree and plant ID Survival skills Hiking simple rock ID simple bird ID
