1 . How to Teach Your Kids to Enjoy Hiking
Hiking is one of my family's favorite things to do. Ever since my kids were babies, we've been getting out of the house on most weekends to explore and get exercise.
In fact, there is no secret.
I've made a list of the things I think about whenever we head out on a multi-hour hike. This list has expanded over the years, as I've learned what works and what doesn't.
Eat before you leave and carry food and water.
Show them a route map. Kids like knowing where they are in the world, and maps are perfect for helping them understand that. I always take some time before we leave to show them where we are and where we're headed. Point out landmarks they will see. Talk about how long it will take.
Invite another family to join you, especially one whose kids know how to hike, too. Having company will motivate all of the children to push forward.

| D．So they don't ask me, " Are we there yet?" |
| E．Not every family's list will look the same. |
| F．It's just years of training that gets them to this point. |
| G．We usually have a quick bite before we set off. |

Every night it goes on the web, keeping parents and the world informed of the happenings at Pali.

If your child enjoys being in the kitchen, then the culinary camp is definitely the right fit. Campers learn technical skills of roasting, frying and cutting, as well as some recipes that they can take home and share with their families.
