There is so much to do and learn outdoors! You can have fun exploring nature and looking at trees, flowers, and animals. You can walk, run, play games, and ride a bike. It is even fun to just sit outside and pay attention to all the things going on around you!

5F – Family Activity
Go outside and watch the weather.
Character Connection: Faith
Know: Discuss things about the weather that you know to be true, but you cannot see at the moment, such as is the sun still there although you only see clouds? Is the moon there, even though it is a day? Can you see wind? Do you know that the rain will eventually stop? Do you have faith in other things you can’t see?
Commit: What makes it difficult to believe in things that you cannot see? What helps you develop faith?
Practice: Do requirement 5F.
