Great post about getting outside with the kids. The sources were great!

I'm writing on behalf of the the KEEN Recess Team. We're inspired by your expertise! Recess is a rallying cry for kids and adults to take a break from the daily grind, get outside, and create their own playground. Thanks for encouraging other families to take advantage of the Great Outdoors.

Best,
KEEN Recess Team
