Sunny Days on Crutches - A Cinch!

Let's face it, as great as smartCRUTCHes are, being on crutches can sometimes make it difficult to venture out and take advantage of a beautiful sunny day. Here are some great ideas of things to do while minimizing the obstacles that can get in the way:

  • Outdoor Picnic – Find a park or a garden with accessible paths and set up a picnic. Bring a comfortable chair or blanket to relax on while enjoying the sunshine and fresh air.
  • Accessible Nature Walk – Look for parks or trails with accessible paths that are suitable for crutches. Some parks have smooth, level paths that make it easier to get around and enjoy nature.
  • Visit a Botanical Garden – Many botanical gardens have paved paths and benches where you can take breaks. Enjoy the vibrant flowers and plants without needing to walk long distances.
  • Attend an Outdoor Event – Look for outdoor concerts, festivals, or markets that are accessible. You can enjoy the atmosphere and entertainment without needing to move around too much.
  • Photography – Bring a camera or your phone and take photos of the scenery, flowers, or wildlife. You can focus on
  • Yoga or Stretching – Do some gentle yoga or stretching exercises in your backyard or a quiet park. Focus on exercises that are easy to do while seated or with minimal movement.

These activities allow you to soak up the sun and enjoy the day while staying comfortable and managing your mobility needs. smartCRUTCH®...The Freedom to Move!
