As kids, nothing could compare to summer. With its warm weather and long days, the season was seemingly made for outdoor activities. However, as adults, many of us have forgotten how to unplug no matter the time of year- until now. Thanks to this list of cool outdoor gear, you'll find plenty of inspirations to spend some time in the great outdoors.
For a hands-on outdoor project, look no further than our selection of summer crafts, including a delightful DIY birdhouse and a charming mosaic kit. If you're more of a wildlife observer, you'll love flipping through the National Geographic Backyard Guide to the Birds of North America . Spinning the handy star wheel will help you name the stars in the night sky during outdoor adventures. And if you're mostly an enthusiast of summer style, you're bound to turn heads when you swim around with a mermaid flipper.
What are you waiting for? Grab something to do, go get some fresh air and enjoy the scenery!
