British Soccer was a success

Soccer is one of our families favorite all time sports. Everyone of our 6 children have played or are still playing. My now 14 year old had an opportunity to  join in the Challenger Sports British Soccer Camp during the summer of 2015 and she had a great time. You can find out more about Challenger Sports below and what they have to offer. 

British Soccer Camp is the most popular camp in North America - 150,000 campers! With an innovative curriculum that develops skills, speed and confidence in players ages 3-18, British Soccer Camps provide boys and girls with the rare opportunity to receive high-level soccer coaching from a team of international expert's right in the heart of their own community. 

In addition to teaching new skills and improving game performance, each British Soccer Camp provides lessons in character development, cultural education and is the most fun your child can have learning the sport they love!

At the end of the day they would have meetings with all of the children to talk about what they accomplished, what they had to work on the next day and what was yet to come in their training. 

Here the children work in different groups and also mentor younger children who are still learning. This is a great step in showing children how to be a team player as well as a leader. My daughter had a great time and talks about this special time often and would suggest this as an option for any soccer lover.

Don't forget your lunch bag

Having a nice lunch from home is sometimes what kids need to feel a little extra loved. I know from time to time my girls like to take lunch from home, but most times they are happy with what is available at school, although from their point of view the food is getting worse so who knows in the next few years we might be sending homemade lunches more often if not everyday.

Even if your children eat lunch in school they made need a lunch bag for either a field trip, or even to carry their snack in. My 3rd graders class has two snacks a day so I want to make sure her drinks stay cool, so they are refreshing when she gets to have them.

These are simple bags available in several colors and if you have some fabric paint you can let your child decorate their very own. Instant unique lunch bag (don't forget to snap pictures).

Even though this says children's lunch bag it is roomy enough to be pulled off by an adult as well.

You can purchase the Hydracentials kids insulated lunch bag on Amazon.

Size: 10.5 inches x L 9.5 inches H x 5 in D

300 Lumens LED Ultra Bright Lantern Review

With my youngest daughter in Brownies this will be the year they go to camp, so we have been stocking up on camping gear which doubles as a Emergency Kit just in case. With this we added the 300 Lumens LED Ultra Bright Lantern. Once you put your batteries in you will see a light going on and off this is normal and will not kill your batteries fast. 

I had a steady low and high as well as a flashing or strobe setting. It can hang from a hook that is on the bottom or from the carrying handle on top. The only thing that could make this better is if it were a wind up lamp so that I know the batteries will always be good inside, or even solar would be awesome. Either way this makes a great addition to our camping/emergency gear. 

You can purchase the 300 Lumens LED Ultra Bright Lantern  on Amazon.
