At WinterKids, we love finding fun, creative ways to help families get outside together, and this one is a favorite! Our friends at Running Peas, a Maine-based kids’ running and playwear company, have generously contributed a brand-new activity to the WinterKids Activity Library: Backyard Family Field Day.
Designed by Joan Kaijala of Running Peas, this free printable guide is packed with playful, easy-to-set-up games that spark movement, laughter, and a little friendly competition. From cardboard box hurdles to dramatic slow-motion sprints, these activities are a joyful way to bring the spirit of field day home. Best of all, you don’t need fancy equipment; just a few everyday items, some space to move, and a crew ready for fun.
Whether you’re gathering a group of neighborhood kids or just looking for a playful afternoon with your own family, Backyard Family Field Day is an excellent way to celebrate active play, creativity, and connection outdoors.
Download your free printable guide today and get ready to create lasting memories right in your own backyard!
