Kids Who Explore Parent Edition
Kids & Family
Rowan Rocskar is the Public Relations Manager at Kids Who Explore. She is mama to 1-year-old Stevie. The Rocskar family lives in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, which is a short drive to the Rocky Mountains! Rowan and Stevie embarked on many adventures (mostly hikes!) while Rowan was off on her 13-month maternity leave from work. Rowan still tries to get out to the mountains at least once a week, and is now learning to go a bit slower to let Stevie explore too.
Secondhand gear is more responsible for the planet. Rowan suggests trying before buying. Rent items or borrow items to decide if they are worth the purchase.
The Adventure Essentials:
Where to look for Secondhand Gear:
*Tip: Try looking at surrounding areas or areas your friends live in*
Items you shouldn’t get secondhand:
For carriers, make sure you try them on!
Rowan also suggests limiting consumption.
