🧺 5 refreshing activities to do with children in the summer at the Els Avets Picnic

Summer is the ideal time to enjoy nature with your family, but when the sun is shining you have to find ways to have fun without getting too hot. Picnic Els Avets, near Girona, we have shady spaces, living nature and plenty of space to play and rest. Today we share with you 5 refreshing and easy activities to do with your children this summer.

 

  1. 💦 Water fight with balloons or sponges

A classic that never fails! Bring water balloons (or wet sponges if you want to avoid waste) and prepare a little water war between children (and adults!). In addition to cooling off, they practice marksmanship and teamwork.

Ideal for groups, birthdays or a family getaway. Picnic, nature and fun guaranteed.

Tip: Bring towels and spare clothes. We have a shaded area to change and rest afterwards!

  1. 🌳 Treasure hunt in the shade of the trees

Organize a little gymkhana to find hidden “treasures”: pinecones, painted pebbles, special leaves... It's a fun way to get moving without having to run too much.

A Els Avets We have plenty of space to create adventures.

  1. 🍉 Picnic with fresh fruit and homemade slush

A good breakfast or snack is a must! Bring fresh fruit (watermelon, melon, peaches, etc.) or make homemade slush with lemon and ice. Children can help prepare it and will enjoy eating with their hands.

A simple and economical plan to escape the routine and disconnect with your family.

Bonus idea: Freeze the fruit on skewers the night before!

  1. 🎨 Ice painting workshop

An artistic and refreshing activity to do with children in the summer. Ideal to do in the picnic area without fear of staining anything.

Freeze tempera paint (or natural dyes) in ice cubes and bring cardboard or old sheets. Kids can paint while the ice slowly melts. It's sensory, artistic and so cool!

  1. 🔍 Forest Explorers: Discovery Trail

Our surroundings are full of natural elements that attract the attention of the little ones. Discover together the flora and fauna of the area with a short excursion through the surroundings. It is a natural way to learn, observe and move calmly. We have easy routes to do with children next to the picnic.

🧭 And remember…
