If you are looking for something the family can do together, you can’t do better than getting a Frisbee and heading out to the nearest open space. It is surprising how long this kid’s toy has been around and how elaborate its uses have become. It is simple and extremely complicated at the same time. It takes nothing more than the flying disc and a little space. And, someone has to chase it so there is an automatic exercise component built in. You don’t even need another person (though it makes it more fun). You can simply throw it back and forth to each other (more or less) or involve yourself in organized activities like disc golf or Ultimate Frisbee, a football-like game that has elaborate squads, practices and extreme competitiveness. You can get your dog involved and even purchase illuminated discs to play at night. With enjoyment possible with skill levels ranging from terrible to professional, flying discs are ideal for a family outing!
