HIKE IT BABY

Hike with a baby on back sounds strange and unsafe but it’s a great idea for the women who love hiking but have a baby! Hike it Baby was created from that idea. This blog started when Founder Shanti Hodges invited a few other new families to join her for a hike.

As the number of families participating grew, it became apparent that the desire to get outside was much more than Shanti expected. Through the help of an ever increasing group of hosts and volunteers, Hike it Baby grew from a small group of parents to a large community of families.

Hike it Baby offers new parents an opportunity to connect and get into nature with their young children. There are many incredible photos of the families joined the journeys, most of the couple parents have their baby have fun and soon raise the natural love in them.This blog is definitely a must-read for any reader that has a family that loves the outdoors. Check it and have fun with your children.
