Fun with the Fam! Recreating Outdoors with Kids

Bringing little ones into the great outdoors is a whole different level of recreating.  Watching them discover and learn about the world around them is unforgettable, but kids also bring a unique set of needs that require some planning for a successful outdoor excursion.

Join us as we interview Jana Tingom from Phoenix with Kids, Luna with The Moonlit Nook, and our own Neil Large on the ways their families recreate in nature. They'll share some of their favorite tips to help you plan for a hiking or camping trip, ways they help their kids enjoy nature, and some of their favorite family memories.
