Get Outdoors Week #GoWeekNZ #docgovtnz

Even before we had children we would often talk about the adventures we would do as a family in the future. Often that was met with quips like 'ha, wait till you have kids!' Well we've never been ones to sit around and wait, so our kids have been lucky to go on some pretty epic adventures since they were tiny. In fact Walter was only 7 weeks old when he did his first overnight tramp in Arthurs Pass! Thankfully these days the load is significantly lighter with the kids able to carry their own gear (bonus!) We were so amped to be able to deck the kids out in some epic Macpac gear that ticked all the boxes and kept them happy, because I think we can all agree that the outdoors is definitely better with the right gear. Those hills don't seem so big when the pack fits well, the nights less cold with the right sleeping bag, and the conditions always pleasant with appropriate clothing. Carrying our own tent reduces the reliance of beds in huts, and having sleeping mats that actually ensure a comfortable sleep rocks our world (no more sore hips in the middle of the night thank you very much!) We are also stoked to be able to share our adventures with some epic friends who demonstrate that it's never too early to take the kids...because outside is always better 🥾❤️
