Fall might be chilly, but that doesn't mean there isn't anything for you and your kids to do. Staying active all year round helps keep you all at a healthy weight and wards of diseases and illnesses. Whether you're stuck in the house or can go outside, here are some activities to keep you all in shape while getting to spend time together making memories. ## 1. Jump in the Leaves ![Jump in the Leaves](https://img.allw.mn/content/em/cc/de587psc5631d0f9a8016055390007_400x225.gif) Not only does raking the leaves into a pile burn some calories, but jumping into them works your muscles and gets your heart pumping. ## 2. Go for a Nature Walk [https://media.giphy.com/media/yOh6NFV6wY3As/giphy.gif](https://media.giphy.com/media/yOh6NFV6wY3As/giphy.gif) Take a stroll through the neighborhood and collect fall leaves, pinecones and other stuff you can examine when you get home. ## 3.
