Mass Audobon Nature Center is a great place to explore in Belmont with your children.

A short distance from Boston this nature center has wonderful short trails perfect for little legs. With three different trails (the Turtle pond loop 0.5 miles; the Highland Farm Loop 0.9 miles; and the Week Pong & Week Meadow trails 1.05 miles if starting at the visitor's center) its a great place to start your kids on learning and loving getting out in nature and taking hikes. We loved trying to find the turtles on the logs at Turtle pond. Plenty of trees to look in and around and lots of nature to climb in and around too.

This sanctuary is part of the Mass Audubon society. Lots of outdoor camps and events are held there.

The Head of Accounting and Boston Ambassador, Jenny has been living in Boston for almost 10 years. Before Boston, she lived in Washington, DC for 8 years, and previous to that grew up on Long Island, NY. Along the way, she spent a few months in Amsterdam with her family biking all around and exploring that beautiful city! Jenny has always enjoyed being active - from organized sports to jogging, and of course, being in the garden as much as possible when the weather is cooperative. She tries to include her children in all of her active hobbies. With two toddler boys, ages 3 and 5, she and her husband spend their time discovering new places and things to do in the New England area. Spending time outdoors in all types of weather and encouraging her children to love all seasons is very important to her - and so is helping and encouraging others to do the same. Jenny and her family love spending time at the beach, traveling, taking walks and hikes, and of course, finding new playgrounds!
