Eco & Sustainable Family Lifestyle

We care deeply for the environment and mother nature: the alignment in the Eco Lifestyle and Sustainability area is extremely important to us.

The two principles that guide our lifestyle, travel, and outdoor play, are:

Reduce. Reuse. Recycle.

Leave No Trace.

From gear, personal care products, to clothing, to our shopping guides, to food & cooking, to actual travel and learning experiences… Giving preference to natural, organic, chemical-free, eco-friendly, recyclable & fair-trade products and services is a good start, but there is much more you could do to take better care of both yourself and the planet.

In this “Eco Lifestyle” category you’ll find a collection of our personal experiences, products, tips & sustainable living recommendations of how to improve your “active score” and “green score”.

We absolutely love companies and brands that in addition to or through their product attempt to educate both kids and parents on science, technology, health, environmentalism, and sustainabile living.

We’ll be happy to partner up with companies, services, and individuals that promote eco-friendly products and services, who employ fair trade and sustainable business practices, who offer recycling programs.

Do you have a website, a blog, a social media channel, an educational program, or a social group that sells or promotes eco-friendly products and a sustainable lifestyle?!  We’ll be excited to hear from you! Send us a message and let’s connect partner-up or exchange back-links!
