Raising Chickens
A fun educational and outdoor activity that you can do with your kids is raising and caring for chickens. Spring is the perfect time to buy some chicks with your kids that you can then raise for eggs or meat. Home-raised chicken eggs have a much higher level of Omega-3’s compared to store eggs. Omega-3 oils are known to be beneficial to brain development in babies and children, which is why pregnant women are encouraged to take a fish oil supplement that contains Omega-3 molecules. Raising and caring for chickens is inexpensive and fun for the kids, and the eggs are healthy for everyone.
