There are loads of these wearable gadgets on the market at the moment. We haven’t used any but from our research they look pretty specky!
They can teach your kids to tell the time and have cool features like a camera, voice recorder, games, a torch and even a music player!
Depending on how fancy you go, you can also track your kids via GPS or call them like a telephone! How snazzy is that!
Walkie Talkie Radios
Breaker Breaker – do you have a copy? Over.
Can you remember how much fun it was to play radios when you were a kid? These are a great way to get the kids out and about exploring. We have a set and use them all the time. I often send Rob out with the kids for an explore or a fish and when dinner is ready I contact them on the radio. Easy!
Slackline Set
Kids absolutely love slacklines – they incorporate so many of the things kids find fun: balance, falling, bouncing and the physical challenge.
What is a slackline you may be asking… well, a slackline is a two-inch-wide nylon webbing strip with a ratchet tensioning system. Most slacklines attach easily to trees and are the perfect way for kids of all ages to hone balancing skills while building core strength and confidence. A great activity for the backyard, the park or your campsite. This slackline can be set up in minutes with no knots.
