We go outside everyday to a playground or park. There are times we spend several hours outside, particularly when the weather is nice. Things like zoo free days, splashpads, other outdoor enrichment type places are helpful in addition to checking out various local playgrounds. There are already tons of ideas here, but if you're looking for more there's an author by the name of Ginny Yurich who has written many books on homeschooling who wrote this one as well: 1000 Hours Outside ETA - we also spend time in our backyard... We look for wildlife, rocks, leaves, feathers etc sometimes and things like chalk and bubbles, a scooter and helmet can help stretch outside time if you're uncertain about it or it's not your normal routine. That and a water table or garden hose and some plants to water!
