Take the 1000 Hours Outside Challenge!

Remember back when we were kids, and we spent hours outside roaming the neighborhood, only to come home when it got dark? Those days of freedom outside can be harder to find, as technology has advanced and our schedules have filled. What if we slowed down a little bit, and reconnected with the peace that came with those long days outside?

That’s where the 1000 Hours Outside challenge comes into play. The initiative was created by Ginny Yurich, with a simple goal–to increase our outdoor time, and decrease time spent on screens. The idea is to log 1000 hours of time outside as a family in 365 days. We'll help you get started:

First Fridays in Indy and especially at the Harrison Center are one of my favorite ways to introduce kids to the Indy arts scene without making it feel like a “museum voice” situation.

There’s art, music, open studios, interesting people, and that fun feeling of letting your kids wander into something creative and unexpected. It’s free, it’s family-friendly, and it’s such a great way to spend a Friday night together in Indianapolis.

Add this one to your list for your next family night out!

Grab the kids, pack a few snacks, and get ready for one of the sweetest little summer traditions in Indy: the Eagle Creek Kids Fishing Derby!
https://indywithkids.com/eagle-creek-kids-fishing-derby/
It’s a low-key, memory-making morning where kids can cast a line, try something new, and maybe even reel in a big one. No fancy fishing skills required, just a little patience, a little sunscreen, and a lot of fun.
