Wear Your Kids Out at McMurry Natural Area

McMurry Natural Area {Life as a Field Trip}

What four things make a fantastic outdoor field trip for kids? Sticks, rocks, water and mud, of course. McMurry Natural Area in Fort Collins has all four and a bridge to boot. It was perfect for our late afternoon outing yesterday.

Not only was it great fun to play and explore at McMurry Natural Area, but the kids slept good that night. Fresh air and exercise are just the ticket for wearing your kids out.

Not near Fort Collins, Colorado? Where do you take your kids to burn energy and have some good old fashioned fun?

    • It is definitely worth stopping! There’s so much to do. I’ve been out here so many times, but each time we see or do something new. We love it!

    • We spend a lot of time looking for neat rocks. We finally had to create a rock garden to make use of all of our great finds!

  1. This is great! I love the picture and I bet your kids had a great time. I love when I take my little one to long walks. He always come home and sleep all night too.
