Lemon Creek Loop Trail Start at the end of Pine and walk about a mile all the way around the loop. There is a rope swing over the creek, and lots of salmon starting to run sometime in August. A great place to watch Sockeye salmon jumping up over the water fall. Airport Wetlands Park at the end of Radcliffe road. Take it slow, going at your child's slower pace gives you a chance to notice wild mushrooms, birds, and berries.
Most Kids love to carry their own backpack with a light snack item inside.
Make up stories, or teach a simple song while you walk. Or make arrows out of sticks to point out interesting sights. Remember that your main goal is to help your child learn to enjoy hiking - much more important than how fast or far you get today. Be prepared, and be safe. Carry a change of clothes, extra food, water, and a bear bell if needed.
