"Nature never disappoints."
I once read this sentence in a parenting book and I have to say: it's simply true. With my children, too, it was sometimes a fuss until they were dressed, they whinged that they didn't want to go out and it took forever until we were outside. But when we were outside, in the snow, by the stream, in the meadow, somewhere in nature, it was always great, the children always had fun discovering something, something that interested them.
So here's my suggestion for you: No matter how early or late it is in the day. No matter whether it's cold or warm. Going out with children is always possible. And it's always good and incredibly important for children to get some exercise in nature, to explore and investigate things. And by the way: it has been proven that fresh air also strengthens children's immune systems.
To conclude with Hape Kerkeling: "The boy needs to get some fresh air." And so does the girl :-).
