It’s National Get Outdoors Day today! Yippee!! If you are like me, you are looking for an excuse… ANY excuse really… to spend time outside. So here are some of the SIMPLE mamas’ favorite products aimed at getting you outside and enjoying God’s green earth (Michigan only has a few precious “green” months and I am GOING to take advantage of them!).
Games & Toys:
Are you one of those people that just likes to laze around and do nothing? Then you might just want to skip to the next section, because I’m about to talk about some FUN stuff! If you are looking for some amazing games to play outside, then be check out Rollors or Tactic Games. Both of these products are made from quality wood materials and are so easy to play and set up that not only will YOU enjoy them, but also your kids will as well! AND if you are looking for something a little more “crazy,” you can go crazy and build just about anything out of pool noodles using Canoodle!
Don’t forget full on fun with a Spalding hoop or a JumpSport trampoline. While your little ones are playing, and you are resting from all the activity, pop a squat on a 3-seater chair from Brylane Home too! And block those rays with your Under Armour shades…
Family, Fun & FOOD:
What better way to spend time outside than to enjoy it with family. If your family is like mine though, whenever we get together there is aways FOOD! So while you are having fun with your family, be sure to whip up a nice Beet Summer Salad that is sure to please the senses, and for the little ones you can make some homemade popsicles with Zoku! Typically at our house, there are not enough seats around the patio table for everyone to sit, so grab your Turtleback and you have a perfect cup holder that will hold your drink wherever you find yourself sitting.
If you are more of a free spirit and don’t spend much time at home during the summer, be sure to grab some Nature Valley Granola to add to your bag as you head wherever the wind takes you!
Show off your summer FASHION:
Kids like to go, go and GO! So let them tumble and play in Tumblewalla clothing that is designed to let your kids play free and unrestrained. While your kids are climbing the nearest tree, you can sit back and relax with your Hobie Polarized Sunglasses on and watch the action or enjoy a good book.
If the beach is where you are headed, be sure to pack a Hapari swimsuit and have every woman ask you, “Where did you get that awesome swimsuit? You look great!”
Outdoor Accessories:
Sometimes having the perfect product can make an experience more enjoyable, so grab your snuggle buddy and go relax in your Eagles Nest Outfitters hammock: the PERFECT spot for a summer siesta. And for those spur of the moment picnics in the park, you’ll be glad that you packed your Posh Play Mat to keep you clean and comfortable wherever you sit! This handy mat is great to have on hand wherever you go (not just for picnics!).
The sun is shining, the birds are singing… so what are you waiting for? Grab your favorite product and get outside!
