今年夏天要和孩子一起做的10件事

Looking for some fun outdoor activities for you and your family? Be sure to try these simple, imaginative, and fun activities!

你正在为自己和家人寻找一些有趣的户外活动吗?一定要试试以下这些简单、有创意且有趣的活动。

Swing in a Hammock

在吊床上荡秋千

Snuggle close to your child, and sway the afternoon away. Look for pictures in the clouds and watch them change, or read books to each other.

紧紧依偎着孩子，摇摆着度过一下午。寻找云朵里的图画，看着他们改变，又或者互相读本书。

Do Yard Work Together

一起做庭院劳动

Toddlers can help pull weeds and sprinkle the flowers with a tiny watering can. Have a kid-size rake and a bubble-blowing lawn mower on hand.

孩子可以帮忙拔草，也可以拿个小喷壶浇花。要有一个小孩可用的钉耙和一个割草机型吹泡泡机。

Play Dress-Up

玩装扮游戏

Collect funny hats, gloves, purses, flowing gowns, and "superhero capes" at a garage sale or thrift store. Slip into your new finery, and have a make-believe garden party, Spider-Man adventure, or masquerade ball.

在旧货出售摊或二手店收集一些有趣的帽子、手套、钱包、飘逸的长袍和“超人斗篷”等。穿上你这些新衣服，召开一个面具公园派对，蜘蛛侠大冒险或举办一个化妆舞会。

Build a Secret Fort

建立一个秘密堡垒

Drape old sheets over lower tree limbs and clotheslines. Eat dinner there. Stay up chasing fireflies and listening to "night sounds."

用旧床单覆盖在较低的树枝、晒衣绳上。在那里吃晚饭，熬夜追逐萤火虫，聆听“夜晚的声音”。

Hold a Car Wash

洗一洗车

Park your car in the driveway and let your child give it a good scrub with a pot of water and sponge or with the garden hose. Get the whole family involved for added fun!

把车停在车道上，给孩子一个小水壶和海绵或者一根花园软管，让他用心擦洗小车。让整个家庭都参与进来以增加更多乐趣!

Go on a Bug Safari

进行昆虫狩猎

Dig for worms, scout for lizards, and hunt for frogs and tadpoles. Marvel at an ant carrying an oversize crumb.

挖蚯蚓、找蜥蜴，找青蛙和蝌蚪。(让孩子)惊叹蚂蚁扛着超大的面包屑。

Befriend a Firefighter

协助消防队员

Bake cookies (or pick up some ice pops), and deliver them to your local fire station. The firefighters will appreciate the surprise -- and your child will meet some heroes, see those awesome trucks up close, and learn a lesson about giving to others.

烘烤一些饼干(或买些冰欺凌)，把它们送给你当地的消防局。消防队员会非常感谢你送的惊喜，你的孩子会遇到一些英雄，近距离地看到那些宏大的卡车，上一堂关于奉献的课。

Chalk it Up

画个粉笔画

Everyone loves sidewalk chalk. Use the glow-in-the-dark kind so you and your child can glimpse your artwork from the window at bedtime.

每个人都喜欢在人行道上画画。使用那种可以在黑暗中发光的粉笔，这样你和你的孩子在睡前可以从窗口看到你们的艺术作品。

Make Beautiful Music

创作优美的歌曲

Spread a blanket in the backyard for a stage. Ask preschoolers to create (and collect) "tickets" to the big event. Invite kids to bring their instruments and perform -- even your littlest musicians can join in using pots, wooden spoons, and shakers. Set up lawn chairs for the audience, and cheer your little stars.

在后院铺开一条毯子做一个舞台。让要上学的孩子们创建(并收集)“门票”来参加这次大型活动。邀请孩子们带来他们的乐器并进行表演——甚至你的小小音乐家可以使用锅、木勺和振荡器等。为观众设置草坪躺椅，为你们的小明星欢呼。

Dance in the Rain

在雨中跳舞

Surprise your kids by taking them outside during a gentle summer shower. Dance around in swimsuits, catch raindrops in your mouth, and jump in all the puddles.

碰到温和的夏季阵雨时给他们一个惊喜带他们出去。穿上雨衣跳舞，张嘴捕捉雨点，跳过所有的水坑。
