For those easy trails that your toddler wants to walk! It’s so nice having my 3 year old in shoes that we trust to have good grip but also we don’t care if she finds some puddles or mud along the way!

Bringing food & drinks
Our family loves to bring Nalgene water bottles hiking! No leaking and carries plenty on water for the whole family!
Nalgene Sustain Narrow-Mouth 32-oz. Water Bottle
Snack containers are a must when hiking! Easy to carry and hold without spilling!
Munchkin Snack Catcher - 2pk - Blue/Green
If your toddler is like mine and wants to “do it themselves” this water bottle sling is so helpful! Gives them independence without the inevitable complaints about carrying something.
Small Tag Along Bottle Sling
Sandwiches are our favorite hiking food! They’re so easy to make ahead of time, and easy to keep fresh without a cooler! Resealable bags help keep them fresh especially when your toddler doesn’t finish theirs on the first attempt.
Reusable Bag - Sandwich - 8pk - up&up™
Great to have for all the snacks you have to bring along for the hike! We love reusable bags because we don’t want to accumulate garbage on the trail!
