FISHING. If they have no experience fishing, this is a great opportunity for them to learn.

At their ages they don't need a license. However, IF AN ADULT ASSISTS THEM IN ANY MANNER, THE ADULT MUST HAVE A LICENSE. You can get inexpensive fishing gear at Walmart.

There are several public access fishing ponds in The Villages. You can find the list with a Google search. Note that they request you catch and release. My favorite pond is on the southwest corner of the traffic circle at Buena Vista and El Camino Real.

I've seen kids use bread on a small hook in the small pond and then put the small fish they catch on a larger hook and catch bass in the big pond.
