We go outside twice a day, morning generally backyard play and an afternoon walk; weather permitting.
Some days it may be too cold, too wet, or too hot for the children to safely play outside. I follow this rough guideline to determine whether conditions are suitable for outdoor play.
It is too COLD if the weather is:
-
- A cold weather alert has been issued by weather network
- Weather conditions such as rain, freezing rain, high winds, blizzard or a snow storm
It is too HOT if the weather is:
-
- A heat alert has been issued by weather network
- Weather conditions such as rain, high winds, thunder or lightning storm
