We are avid campers, actually we are on our 3rd camper. After years of camping every summer for months at a time, I have compiled a list of must haves to make our time spent away from home feel like we are at home. well, home away from home. These items are great whether you are “glamping” or sleeping in a tent in the great outdoors.
Do you like to hike with your kids or want to start? Our family loves to hike and my kids have so much fun. I have put together a list of our favorite hiking gear for kids so you can start hiking too.
I love working out, but I'm really picky about the tools I use! They need to be high quality and durable. The last thing I want is to hurt myself because I got something cheap.
I have loved sports since my early childhood! As a young girl wanting to play baseball in my area growing up, the rules were that you had to wait until age 8, unless you had a brother on the team, then you could start as young as six. You best believe I did! I wanted to play football as well, but mom wouldn't let me play on a team. So I did the next best thing and played with all the boys in the neighborhood every chance I could! And when I wasn't outside playing, I would watch these movies to hold me over!
Everything my 10-year-old uses for games, practice, and training. From gloves and bats to catcher’s gear and the little things that actually make a difference on game day. This is all gear we’ve personally used, tested, and trust as a baseball family—no fluff, just what works.

I have been in the Army for a total of 5 years and every morning at 0530 I wake up to conduct PT. Having that disciplined instilled in my I began also going to the gym on my own time after work.

It’s important to workout and feel confident. I’m a yoga girl that loves to go hiking, walking, light lifting, and just staying healthy. Here are items that help and the prices are just right.
I made this list for the women in my life who genuinely love Pilates and wellness, and myself too, who am I kidding. You can shop for the ones who romanticize their morning routines, show up for class even when they’re tired, and actually enjoy taking care of themselves. If you’re shopping for your mom, sister, or friend who’s into movement, Pilates, and self-care, this is where I’d start. These are gifts I’d personally give to someone I know will use and appreciate them — not just things that look cute on a shelf.
Skiing exposes you to cold, wind, and snow. Items like insulated jackets, waterproof pants, thermal base layers, and gloves keep you warm and dry. Comfortable gear lets you ski longer without fatigue or cold-related issues.

Hey! I just want to share a little about my workout journey. As a busy single mom, there's no time for the gym. I consistently walk everyday, do pilates 1-2 times a week and have small weights. Home workouts are a great way to prioritize yourself while still handling all the day to day stuff.

If you’ve lived or visited NY you’ll know how unreliable the subway system can be. I prefer to be able to travel on my own schedule and it’s honestly pretty easy with all the new bike lanes but it can be scary at first. Unfortunately there’s so standard and the market is flooded with cheap products that barely work which I’ve had used before. I know there’s a lot of fear around electric vehicles and fires but they’re mostly caused by cheap 3rd party batteries and mishandling of the personal electric vehicles (PEVs). I’ve had multiple in my room for years and there has never been a problem other than the standard maintenance of the PEVs. Gotta remember all the ones I’ve tested so I’ll be adding to this list.

What I'd purchase if I was just starting out hiking and was wanting to get gear that is quality, technical, made for hiking/active wear, and that fit into a tighter budget. Some of the items on this list may not seem like the most "budget friendly" options and technically they may not be but due to quality, durability, and manufacturer warranties/guarantees they are, in my opinion, worth the extra cost. As someone who doesn't like spending money, I personally am a fan of spending a little more upfront to potentially save a lot in the future.
It's ok if you need to piece together your set up, sticking with what you already have and starting with the basics (Footwear, Pack, and the 10 Essentials) and working towards a more "complete" gear/clothing list. Happy hiking! :)
