Small feet, small footprint

Activities with kids that are planet-friendly (and fun)

Big adventures don’t need big emissions. Kids don’t need much to have a good time. A tent in the garden, a reusable bottle or a homemade drink can turn an ordinary day into something special. These playful picks show that keeping things light on the planet can still mean great fun.


1. Camp in the backyard

Sleeping outside can feel like a big step. A tent in the garden makes it smaller. It helps kids build confidence before they head off to camp. They learn to unpack, repack, roll their mat, and figure things out. It’s fun, but it’s also preparation. A night in the garden isn’t just a play activity. It gives children a moment to try, fail, laugh, and try again. Not everything has to be perfect. A half-inflated mat, forgotten socks or marshmallows over a candle. That’s enough to create connection and courage. Let them pitch their own tent, choose their camp outfit, get their feet dirty. A.S.Adventure encourages all kids (and their parents) to try it, right at home, at their own pace.

2. Refill your water bottle

Filling your own bottle sounds simple, but for kids it’s a small ritual and fun activity that makes a difference. Let them choose their bottle and fill it up before they head out. Whether they’re going camping, playing in the garden or joining a picnic, their bottle becomes part of the adventure. Each refill avoids another plastic bottle, and teaches that reuse isn’t just smart, it’s normal. Dopper, the B Corp certified Dutch brand, wants every child to grow up knowing that a better world often starts with small daily habits.

3. Make your own festive drink

Making your own drinks is a fun and easy way to get creative without waste. Even more so with B Corp Certified drinks. With Double Dutch, kids can try unique flavour combos like pomegranate-basil or cucumber-watermelon. It’s fun and low-impact.

2026 summer trend: the cortisol closet
This summer we are saying goodbye to neon/brat-summer colours and hello to cortisol-reducing pastels. TikTok has been fixated on the effects that cortisol can have on the body, with terms like ‘cortisol face’ dominating feeds for months now. As everything moves faster than ever, fashion palettes are shifting towards something calmer, quieter and more restrained. Step into this slower state of mind and build your spring and summer wardrobe around colours that feel like ease.

Like mother, like style: celebrate her in every way
Style isn’t something you’re born with. It’s something you learn, often without realizing it. From her. The way she throws on a trench coat like it’s effortless. How she always seems to choose just the right scarf. Why she consistently goes for quality over quantity. But it also lives in the moments you shared, long walks filled with stories you still remember, spontaneous trips that stayed with you. This Mother’s Day is about that influence. We celebrate the small things she passed on, the details that shaped your taste, your eye, and your way of living.
