WESTBROOK, ME – In celebration of its 25th Anniversary, WinterKids has launched the 25 Days of Movement Challenge – a free, statewide initiative designed to get families moving outdoors together this August. Participants receive a downloadable digital guide packed with over 100 screen-free activity ideas and can enter to win incredible prizes from Maine Outdoor Brands, including a $250 L.L. Bean gift card, a family rafting trip from Northern Outdoors, and Maine Made products from FLYN, Kit Supply + Co., Marin Skincare, and Running Peas.

“This guide is full of easy ways to get outside and have fun as a family,” says Kristel Hayes, WinterKids’ Marketing Manager, who developed the program. “Most activities require no special gear or associated cost, all are low-barrier, and the real value comes from building new habits of getting outside together every day.”

How it works:

Register free between July 21 and August 13 at winterkids.org/25-days-of-movement

Complete one outdoor activity daily between August 1 – September 7

Submit your completed tracker by September 7 for a chance to win prizes

The 25 Days of Movement Challenge is part of WinterKids’ year-long celebration of 25 years of helping Maine children develop healthy habits through outdoor play and education. It was developed in alignment with Maine’s 10-Year Outdoor Recreation Economy Road Map, and in partnership with Maine Outdoor Brands and the Maine Office of Outdoor Recreation.
