We begin again...with all the gear!

In about month we Forest Pals will return to the forest.  This is the time of year that I check my family's outdoor gear. Do we have rain boots for everyone? mittens? snow gear that will fit?  With constantly-growing children, it's quite the feat to keep everyone's things organized! And please, let's not forget to be sure that the adults in the family also have what we need to be comfortable in all elements.

As our Nature School year begins, here is a gift! A new Gear List I've made for you to use as you get your family's things together. If you're lucky, you've got a source or two for hand-me-downs. If not, second hand consignment and thrift stores can be excellent places to find good gear. And if you're a Forest Pal, keep an eye on our community Gear Swap album on BAND.

See you in the forest soon!
