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: The Sky is Not the Limit (Exploring Above), Dig Deep (Exploring Below), and Outside In (Exploring Within).
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 The Sky is Not the Limit: All about exploring above. How to use your binoculars (very informative even for an adult!), using your binoculars to see stars and constellations, different phases of the moon and how to make a lunar calendar, and bird-watching information (common Canadian birds and interactive bird identification map app)
#2 Dig Deep: All about exploring below. Understanding the history of our world and ancient civilizations through knowledge of the different types of rocks (Igneous, Sedimentary, and Metamorphic), observe and learn by collecting your own rocks, how to make an underwater viewer to see the different Canadian Freshwater fish in the lakes and rivers and a backyard bug exploration game.
#3 Outside In: All about exploring within. Becoming an explorer while practicing mindfulness to help see and appreciate your adventures and surroundings, create a sound map about what you hear, collect samples of things you can sketch, target practice with your slingshot, get to know a tree, and all about summit flags.
Our last camping trip of the year was at Upper Lakes in Kananaskis, Alberta. The perfect day for a hike near the lake.
Recommendations: Another exciting Wild Life Outdoor Adventures kit put to good use by our family! So many fun games, educational learning activities, and awesome gear. Our collection of great quality outdoor gear for the kids has been expanding, thanks to these Wild | Life kits. The items that we have been receiving in each Wild | Life box are so awesome that even us parents want to use them all the time. We really do take that backpack from kit #1 on all our outdoor adventures (see the reviews for the other boxes here). Just when we think we have found our favorite outdoor item from one box, the next box has something just as great or better! For me, the binoculars are that item! As a family, we have at least two pairs of binoculars that we have had for well over a decade but used less than a handful of times. I could never see great out of them so didn’t like using them. With the binoculars from this box… I can see everything perfectly! Everything is in focus and they are comfortable to use. I guess you could say these binoculars are now a “staple” for our outdoor adventures. As a family, these boxes continue to blow our minds, month after month.

Recommendation: My daughter loves crafting and building things, especially with wood. So she couldn’t be more excited to build this candy machine! Her older sister already has a gumball machine so this is a fun alternative that she gets to use and feel proud about building with her dad. I am always so impressed with the quality, attention to detail and simplicity that I have seen in each of the Annie’s kits for kids (Annie’s Creative Girls Club Review). They are the perfect level of difficulty for a wide range of ages to have fun building, whether it be by themselves or with assistance from a parent. The instructions are fun and easy to follow with bright pictures. With each of the Annie’s kits clubs that I have tried, I loved that they came complete with absolutely everything you needed to complete the craft from start to finish, including the paint and stickers! And however structured this craft is, they even made sure to allow for some creativity when decorating the outside with stickers and paint. My daughter is so happy with her finished project! Now we have to go out shopping to get some candies to put inside the candy machine! 🙂

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: Wild Shelters, Tarp Master, and Base Camp.
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 Wild Shelters: Learn about animal shelters, where the best place to build your own shelter, about debris hunts, and fun did-you-know facts.
#2 Tarp Master: Different ways to rig up a tarp, tie a taut-line knot, a step-by-set guide to setting up your tarp shelter, fun games to play out in nature, and how to tell how much daylight is left using your hand.
#3 Base Camp: Creative ideas to use your imagination and some decorations for your shelter: lights, lanterns, creating a communication device out of tin cans, extra protection from the elements, a welcome sign, painted rocks, or building a trellis. Did you know facts and great card game ideas.
Enjoying the last weekend of warm summer camping, until the snow came. Staying up late to check out the tarp tent in the dark and craft glow stick toilet paper animal eyes for their camp (idea from Kit #2: Into the Night)
Recommendations: My husband and I cannot believe how amazing the Wild | Life Outdoor Adventures kits are! Each box is very well thought out, with a great mixture of crafts, facts, and learning while getting outside in nature. We have received a few different Wild | Life Outdoor Adventure boxes to review over the last few months and are constantly blowin’ away! (See the reviews for the other boxes here.) My kids and their friend had so much fun with this box on our recent camping trip in Kananaskis, Alberta. Upon arrival at the campsite, they immediately set up their tarp (with some help) and continued building and playing in their homemade camp over the course of the weekend. They were constantly using items and building crafts from this kit and their past kits. I love how each of these kits builds on the previous kits adding more useful outdoor gear to our collection each time. I do wish that I could purchase a sibling add-on kit or some of the gear separately (such as a second tarp, headlamp, backpack, or other main items). I’m not sure who loves the Wild | Life Outdoor Adventures kits more… Mom and Dad, or the kids?!
If you know a kid who loves crafting and being creative, then this is the perfect monthly box for them!
