Low Cost Things To Do With Kids 10: Walk The Dog Together

Posted by drozzell on November 26, 2008

This is a great activity for parents or grandparents. Assuming you have one or more a pet dogs, a great way to spend time with your son or daughter (or grandson or granddaughter) is to simply take the dogs for a walk around the neighborhood together. You are doing something that you need to do anyway, but with the bonus of having a chance to walk and talk with your child. He/she will love holding the leash for at least part of the walk, and you both get some light exercise as you have a chance to talk together without the interruptions that you might get in the home. Don’t forget to carry a doggie bag to pick up after your pet, if necessary. Doing this also teaches a good lesson to your child or grandchild.
