Boy Will Be Boys – Active Gear Must-Haves

Life of a mom of two boys is truly an adventure. Our whole family loves camping and being outside. I grew up with two brothers (and a sister), so I had a little insight into life with boys but it has been far more adventurous than I had anticipated. I am still learning all the must-haves when it comes to active gear to keep my boys engaged in all the things they love! If you or someone in your family loves being active outside, you will want to learn about these three “must haves”!

Outdoor Active Gear Products are a Powered by Mom Holiday Gift Guide pick. Check out our Gift Guide HERE.

Cypress Double Insulated Stainless Mug

Looking for a durable thermos to be able to take on a hike? The Cypress Double Insulated Stainless Mug is great for the long hikes or even just day in and day out use. It keeps your beverage of choice hot for 12 hours on your winter hikes, and cold for 24 hours for your spring, summer, and fall adventures. Staying hydrated is so important especially when you are active!

Having a cup that doesn’t sweat is super important when hiking. You do not want your bag wet or your hands wet either. Wet hands can be a danger when hiking. You need a firm grip at all times. The Cypress mug is double insulated which means that you do not have to worry about ever having moisture on the outside of the mug. Another key when hiking is having durable active gear. We all know that accidents happen. We have reverted to mostly plastic type of cups from the number of broken glasses that have occurred in our home. You can only imagine how many times they drop their drinking cups when they are outside being active! The Cypress mug comes in a drop resistance casing. For MY boys, this is an absolute MUST!

Outdoor fun? Here is where it’s at… the Maikesi Freeride Longboard. The deck of the longboard is 39.5 by 9.5 inches. The Maikesi Freeride Longboard is sure to entertain your children for hours.
