Considering that kids who have a greater appreciation for the environment have higher test scores, it’s no surprise that parents are looking for plenty of ways to get their children outdoors.
One parent, Heidi Ahrens, took that desire one step further when she created the website Outdoor Baby a year ago. The website is a forum for parents to get and give advice about introducing their young kiddos to the natural world. It’s split into different categories, including climbing, biking, and camping, among others.
The site is full of free information, and parents in the know can even add their own stories after registering.

Great stuff!! Get them outside early and they’ll never stop.
I agree with this. It’s about time to see a different setting, to chill out and just relax.
