This summer my kids and I have a goal to go on a hike every week. Our kids are quite small (2, 4 and 6) so I have chosen hikes that will help them work up their stamina without me having to hear too many “are we there yet?” complaints. My goal with the children is to get them to be comfortable with a few miles in the mountains and perhaps go on a mini backpacking trip with dad. On each hike the children have to carry a small pack with their water and a snack.
Father’s Day is less than a week away and now it is time to get serious about finding that perfect gift. We found great gear for those dads who love water or land but we also found a cool little device that turns any TV with HDMI into a Smart TV. And the best part is that each of these items will cost you less than $50. We still have a couple of guides left so check back soon.
I’ve camped and hiked most of my life, and 21 years in the Army as a reservist always reminds me of the best methods for not being miserable while hiking (and the Army being the Army, how to be miserable while doing it as well) and the need for being in shape if you’re going to be walking up and down roads and hills. I’ve also tried to bring up my kids to be as active as possible, and my three sons are pretty fit and used to the deal as well. This time, however, we’re striking out on new territory.
This is our biggest Father’s Day Gift Guide to date. We struggled trying to narrow it down to only a few products. There are so many great new products that would make any outdoorsy dad happy. We found great packs to some of the best lightweight jackets on the market. We hope that you are able to find that perfect gift for you dad.
Father’s Day is a great time to show your dad how much you appreciate all that he has done for you and the encouragement that he showed you throughout your live. It is now your turn to help encourage him to play a little more in the outdoors. This guide is full of gear that would please any dad who loves the outdoors.
With Father’s Day coming up this month we have found some great gifts that any dad would love. This guide is full of great gifts that will set you back less than $100. This is just the first of a series of Father’s Day gift guides so check back often so you can find that perfect gift for your dad.
