This guide is packed with useful information on camping, enjoying nature without harming it, taking advantage of special wilderness opportunities, and more.The natural world is well within reach of even the most urban of families, with a few precautions and lots of preparation. Mary Mapes McConnell, a travel writer and outdoors enthusiast, provides readers with the tools they need to get the kids out of the city and into the wilderness--safely and sanely. Outdoor Adventures with Kids is packed with resources: where to go; what to pack; recommended equipment for hiking, sailing, rafting, camping, or just exploring the seashore with kids (ages 4 and older).
