English translation:Play outings
Explanation:
in case the age range is as I suspect (3 to 35 months), as in the Pierre et Vacances website.

Play outings could then cover beach games, developing motor skills, etc, which would be appropriate to this age range

Don't want to go against the general consensus here, but ... as Carol pointed out, I think the age range (which did not get included in the post, unfortunately) makes her choice more fitting. Catharine, I think your suggestion would fit if the age range were a bit older. Thank you to everyone!

Fun walks


Explanation:
suggestion

" Their repertory ranges from "fun walks" (e.g., Pirate Treasure Hunts & City Safaris) to walks that are pegged to national curriculum subjects"
http://www.walks.com/Homepage/Private_Walks_/default.aspx

" There are themes, too: fun walks with masks and games; adventure walks with treasure maps."
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/family/5777831/How-to-get-your-ch...

"targeted interventions which are theoretically based and provide printed support materials – these should include resource manuals describing activity options in the community, and offer no-cost organized events, such as fun walks, 8) physician-based counseling, 9) workplace-based exercise programmes and educational campaigns"
