Introducing the Surf & Turf Kids Outdoor Club: Adventure, Community, and Fun for Kids

At Play Outside, we believe in sparking a love for the outdoors in kids, one muddy puddle, sandy beach, or forest trail at a time. That’s why we’re thrilled to introduce the Surf & Turf Kids Outdoor Club—a program designed to help families start their own kids’ outdoor club, wherever they are!

This isn’t just about getting outside (though that’s a big part of it). It’s about creating memories, fostering curiosity, and building a sense of community around the magic of nature.

What is the Surf & Turf Kids Outdoor Club?

The Surf & Turf Kids Outdoor Club is a simple, fun, and meaningful way to connect kids and families to nature. Whether you’re exploring hiking trails, organizing beach days, or hosting backyard bug hunts, this club makes it easy to bring people together for outdoor adventures.

Here’s the best part: you don’t need anything to start! All you need is a group of kids, a sense of adventure, and our free guide to help you get started.

If you want to make your club extra special, we’ve created a starter kit with vibrant T-Shirts, durable Water Bottles, Stickers Achievement Badges to keep kids motivated, and Adventure Journals. These tools add a sense of belonging and help kids feel like they’re part of something big.

Why Start a Kids Outdoor Club?

Spending time in nature isn’t just fun—it’s vital for kids’ health and happiness. Research shows that outdoor play boosts creativity, builds resilience, and strengthens mental health. It also helps kids form a lifelong connection to the environment, inspiring them to protect it.

Starting a kids outdoor club is a simple way to:

• Encourage Exploration: Inspire curiosity about plants, animals, and the natural world.
• Build Community: Strengthen friendships and connect with other outdoor-loving families.
• Create Memories: Make every hike, beach trip, or backyard adventure unforgettable.
