Traveling Ted is a blog that takes readers along on my adventures hiking, canoeing, skiing, and international backpacking. Many blogs focus on one aspect of backpacking, but I tackle both the outdoor adventure side and international exploration as well.

Sharing is caring!

The Wildman Ranch showed up at the Chicago Travel & Adventure show to the delight of these young kids. This photo proves children love outdoor adventure. All they need are parents to show them the way. Often times, parents take family vacations to the Wisconsin Dells and Disneyland and these are musts and a rite of passage for every child to look back upon. However, don’t forget about outdoor adventure vacations. Introduce your children early and often to the outdoors.

The benefits for this are many. They are healthy activities for both the body and the mind. Outdoor adventure travel activities foster exercise and a healthy lifestyle. Hiking, canoeing, and skiing all get the heartbeat up and stretch the muscles. They also get children off the computer, Facebook, and video games, which is a must at times in this era of internet and TV reliance.
