The Outdoor Kid

One of the greatest joys I've had as a Dad and Grandpa has been taking our kids and grandkids fishing. It's a time of excitement, anticipation, conversation, teaches patience, and creates lasting memories...and it's an inexpensive hobby. And this time of year is a great time to give the gift of fishing with The Outdoor Kid, Here Fishy Fishy Kids Gift Box. I have a limited quantity (so order soon) of Gift Boxes, both in closed- and open-face reels. Check it out at www.theoutdoorkid.com and happy holidays!

Spring is right around the corner and kids will be on break from school. March is a great time to start seeds indoors and give your kids a fun and educational project to do during their break. They'll love to share with family and friends how their seedlings are growing and the beautiful flowers and tasty vegetables they will grow this summer. Order your flower and vegetable seed starting kits today. See all kits available at www.theoutdoorkid.com

Preorder the NEW Out of This World Air Plant Kids Gift Box today and receive it in time for the holidays. Air Plant, Tillandsia Ionantha is a great way to get kids excited about gardening indoors. These plants are unique and easy to grow as they don't have roots or grow in soil, they absorb water through their leaves. Just spritz once a week and display your air plant in bright, indirect light and your kids will have fun for years to come. I've had some growing on a bright windowsill for 5+ years and they are still doing great. Visit www.TheOutdoorKid.com to preorder your gift box. The box will ship Monday, December 18, and ship USPS Priority Mail to arrive before the Holiday.

I found a great upcycled seed-starting container this weekend. If shop at COSTCO, (or know someone who does) look for the 24-pack of eggs or ask someone to save them for you. This plastic container is suitable for starting seeds and then transferring them to a larger peat pot or another container when they are bigger. Just remember, you'll need to punch holes in the bottom of each individual holder so water can drain from the bottom or water can wick up through the holes. And don't forget to place the plastic container on a tray to catch water. What's ideal is the lid when placed over the seed starting mix and seedlings acts as a mini greenhouse. Help kids explore seed starting with an easy-to-follow-kit from www.TheOutdoorKid.com

It's hard to believe, but it's getting close to the time for kids to plant their seeds indoors and get ready to watch as they sprout, push through the soil, and grow healthy and strong. It won't be long before you can enjoy tasty edibles and gorgeous flowers in your own yard and garden. It's easy to get your starting seeds kit. Just visit www.theoutdoorkid.com to order yours today.
