Description
Let’s get you outside!
As outdoorsy parents, we get asked all the time for our favorite outdoor activities and locations with kids in our area. We’ve tried so many. Some are amazing (and others, not so much). We love finding new creative and unique ways to spend time outside together. And we want you to do the same. We don’t want you to waste your time doing a million hours of research. We don’t want you settling for the “most touristy” things to do in any city and miss all the really good outdoor stuff that only the locals know about. So, we put only the VERY BEST outdoor activities altogether for you in one convenient place!
Introducing, the Run Wild My Child Get Out Guides!
Get Out Guides are our one-stop resource for outdoor kid-friendly travel planning! We know what outdoor activities kids (and parents) love. We designed these digital ebooks with outdoor-loving families in mind! These guides are meant to help you plan your travels (both near and far) or perhaps even help you be a tourist in your own city. They’re community-sourced and vetted, with lists of things to do and places to see, each carefully selected to highlight a different adventure in a specific city or area.
What is included in the Get Out Guides?
Our Get Out Guides are packed full of enough outdoor adventures, activities, and destinations to keep you busy for an entire vacation and beyond. While each guide is unique to the area it covers (and covers a LOT), there are a few commonalities that you’ll find in all of our Get Out Guides. The following items and topics can be found in each of our Get Out Guides:
- hiking trails
- biking trails
- outdoor dining locations
- parks and playgrounds
- farms and farmer’s markets
- unique outdoor attractions
- water adventures and splash pads
- sample itineraries (if you only have a day or weekend to explore)
- resources
