Children can enjoy berry picking especially if berries are easy for them to get too. The strawberry season is nearly here and strawberries are easy for children to pick.

• Find a farm near you that allows you to pick your own fruit
• Allow 30 minutes for fruit picking before lunch.
• When you return home prepare an after dinner dessert with the children using the fruit you picked together
• Praise them for their efforts and enjoy the dessert.
