Babes in the Woods

A Parents Guide to Getting Outdoors

Some parents worry about even being able to get their children outside -- smart folks in the travel industry see this as a huge issue and are responding accordingly. Check out Gorp.com which is part of the away.com network. They have an on-line family expert, Alice Carey, who writes thoughtfully on the subject with lots of good advice. One recent feature -- "Baby in the Woods" provides advice to parents of very young children. Alice also has advice for getting older kids outdoors too. Photo from Gorp.com website
