Going to a friend’s house is very interesting. You may spend time with a friend and get to know where he lives. So remember to be polite.

  When to arrive

  The first thing to remember is that when a friend invites you over, you need to arrive on time. If your friend tells you to come “around 3:00”, that means you can turn up a little bit after 3:00. But usually it is a good idea to arrive at the right time.

  What to bring

  Often it is also nice to bring something to your friend’s house. This could be a box of chocolates for you two to share, or maybe a movie so that you can watch it together. You can also bring some flowers. A little gift is a nice way to show your friend that you are excited to be at his house.

  How to greet

  When you visit your friend’s house, you may also meet his parents. You should tell them who you are and they may tell you their names. As a child, I went to visit my friend Paul. I called his parents by their first names John and Mary. But now I know it is more polite to call them Mr. or Mrs. Smith. This will show them more respect and then they may tell you to call them by their first names. Another way to show respect is to call them Madam or Sir.

It is a cool thing to visit a friend’s house. Be polite to your friend and your friend’s parents, and you will be invited again!

  We asked Steven to share some outdoor activities that families can do together.Here’s what he told us.

  Going to a nature center---In State Audubon societies, there are usually smaller nature centres.Naturalists are ready to answer kids’ questions so parents don’t need to worry about teaching the subject matter themselves.

  Hiking---Going on a hike is a great way to go outdoors and get some exercise.State parks can offer free paths to hike along and many fields to explore.

  Gardening--- Gardening is a wonderful family activity.Not only can the whole family get involved, but everyone can benefit from the harvest.Since it’s winter, you might just start with a family plan for the garden.The garden can be a cooperative effort where parents can teach their children teamwork.Assign tasks to each family member.Who plans?Who waters?

  Fruit picking---It’s a great seasonal outdoor activity.Children get to see how fruits grow and everyone gets to enjoy the fruits which they pick.

  Cleaning up---Taking part in nature clean-ups or volunteering to do path maintenance(維護(hù))teaches kids that they have the ability to do something positive for the environment and communities.When parents get involved, they can set a good example for their children to follow, which will help children realize their responsibility to protect the environment.
