Wild | Life Outdoor Adventures Review – Kit #2: Into the Night 

Inside each Wild | Life Adventures kit you will find everything you need to create a new and amazing adventure outside in your backyard or in the back-country.

This month’s activities include: Using the Night Sky, Nocturnal Nature, and Play in the Dark

Each of the Pack-tivity cards clips nicely inside your Field Notes journal (from kit #1:Bear Essentials Kit) for future use and to take with you while you are out exploring. Each month there are three tri-fold activity cards.

The activity cards will provide you with many tips and facts about how to use the items and equipment in the kit. Each of these cards provides fun activities and inspiration to get outside as a family and explore the wide world we live in.

#1 Using the Night Sky: A step-by-step guide to using your new star wheel to find constellations. The fun activities include: Let’s Find the North Star, Star Crafter, Seeing Stars, and some fun ‘Did you know’ facts.

#2 Prepare Your Pack: Steps to follow to go on a nighttime nature walk looking for nocturnal animals. The activities included are differences in seasonal nocturnal animals, what to look for, and fun activities for different times of the year.

#3 Play in the Dark: Cool did you know facts! A step-by-step guide to a flashlight hidden message hunt. The fun activities included are: make your own eyeshine, winter snow monsters, glow-in-the-dark bowling, and did you know facts, such as a life hack for extending your glowsticks!

Recommendations: My kids were thrilled when this subscription box arrived in the mail for them! Our whole family loved the first box (Kit #1: Bear Essentials Review) and we still use our backpack every time we head out for a coulee walk or to the mountains. This box is just as amazing, maybe even more amazing because of the fun activities that we can do as a family on our upcoming camping trip to Dinosaur Provincial Park. The thought and attention to detail that goes into curating this box and all its contents are beyond what I would have expected. Inside each box, there is at least one high-quality multipurpose item and many other extra fun items and facts that add so much to the experience. Within each box, you can go into as much depth as you want, from a basic understanding of the concepts to learning everything and doing all the activities within the kit. That’s what makes it great for a variety of ages! With many families choosing to homeschool this year, these boxes are great for supplementing their learning while getting your kids outside to have fun and explore nature!

Wild | Life Outdoor Adventures Review

Inside each Wild | Life Adventures kit you will find everything you need to create a new and amazing adventure outside in your backyard or in the backcountry.

This month’s activities include: Gear Up, Prepare Your Pack, and Take a Hike

Each of the Pack-tivity cards clips nicely inside your Field Notes journal for future use and to take with you while you are out exploring. Each month there are three tri-fold activity cards.

The activity cards will provide you with many tips and facts about how to use the items and equipment in the kit. Each of these cards provides fun activities and inspiration to get outside as a family and explore the wide world we live in.

#1 Gear Up: A checklist for packing essentials and tips about clothing choices, where items go in your backpack, a calculator for how much water to bring, and how heavy your bag should be.

#2 Prepare Your Pack: A step-by-step guide to adjusting your backpack to ensure that it fits properly and is comfortable. The activities included are: creating a nature time capsule with step-by-step instructions to open in 5 years, making a wild copy of a piece of nature, and a hidden name game.

#3 Take a Hike: Following all the tips and lists you learned in the previous activity cards you are now preparing for a hike: find a partner, choose a hike, and gear up! Learn about hiking etiquette.  The activities included are seed socks to help notice how seeds travel around and fun games while hiking (hide and seek: trail edition, close encounter, and trail songs).

 

Recommendations: My family loves getting outside and exploring nature! My husband lives for the mountains and takes every opportunity to teach our kids about them that he can get. When we go out for hikes, bike rides, or camping our conversations are very much centered around nature and its beauty. My kids live for facts…the more information the better! So when I received this Wild | Life Outdoor Adventures kit I knew the whole family would love it!

I couldn’t believe how fun this box is! The pack-able backpack is sure to be used on every outing we take and I’m sure both my kids will be wanting to finally carry their own items (thank you!). I was amazed at the quality and how functional the backpack is. It is such a brilliant design and probably one of the coolest and most useful items that I have got in a subscription box. The field notes journal and activity cards are so practical and for my child that loves learning, I know she will spend many hours reading and learning how to pack her backpack properly and will make sure that, when the snow finally melts, we will try out some of the activities in our own community ravine. I love that each of the items is for kids and also very durable and I have no doubt that they will last for years to come!

I would recommend the Wild | Life Outdoor Adventures kit for any child that enjoys learning, being outdoors, or needs more encouragement to get outdoors and have fun! This box would make a perfect non-toy gift to give to any child! I cannot wait to see what is in the future boxes!
