Turn Your Family Nature Walks Into An Adventurous Quiz Show

Science is all around us — in nature, in the food we eat, and even in who we are as humans. Exploring the world around you isn’t just about looking at the view from on a mountain or along a trail. Ask each other some questions about your surroundings, and you’ll see everything in a whole new way.

Another fun trivia game to try out on a long walk is a musical one — Name That Tune! Either bring along a phone with a pre-planned playlist, or try singing songs to each other. Play a few seconds of the beginning of a popular song and give everyone the chance to guess what it is. There’s nothing better than finding a new favorite song, and don’t worry if mom and dad don’t know the new stuff. It’s probably more fun to see them get confused by your favorite songs anyway!

Are you more of a sports family? Want to stump your parents on baseball knowledge? Get a sports trivia game going while you hike or walk along the scenic outdoors!

Are you a family of history lovers? Try a presidential trivia game! Sometimes it’s fun to try and name every president in chronological order, but other times it can be just as intriguing to ask mom and dad about some historical facts to see what they know and don’t know.

Of course, there’s no better way to bond with your family than getting to know them better. Take turns asking questions about yourself that only family would know. Give everyone a turn, and you’ll be pleasantly surprised how much your family may or may  not know about one another. What’s your favorite color? Favorite move? Least favorite food? It’s a fun way to see who knows you best!

Some families love animals of all kinds, so try turning your nature walk into an animal trivia trip! Animal lovers are known for their passionate knowledge of their favorite species, and it’s always fun to learn about all the different kinds of animals that we share the planet with.
