Coleman Get Outside Day with Glow-in-the-Dark Youth Star Quad Chair #Review

coleman

Get Outside day is an initiative started by the Coleman Canada company after reviewing the results of their Outdoor report and finding that 63% of  Canadians spend less than 2 hours a week outdoors, while only 18% spend 4 or more hours. Even though most of them agree that spending time outdoors makes a person healthier and happier. Therefore, on the 12th of July 2014, Coleman Canada asked Canadians to unplug and break away from technology and to spend some quality time together, making some outdoor memories.

While creating these outdoor memories with your little ones it is important to set out prepared for the adventure, be it hiking, a picnic in the park or even camping in your own backyard. Coleman provides a variety of accessories that will ensure that you meet all your little ones’ needs while providing them with hours of fun. I received one of these products, the Coleman Glow-in-the-Dark Youth Star Quad Chair to review.

To put this product to the test we decided to camp outside in our backyard for our Get Outside day adventure. The little ones woke us up early morning, excited about the camping outside. With not a lot of hassle and a lot of encouragement from the little ones’ we set up camp outside, playing many games and enjoying some delicious snacks. However, it was only at night when the true fun started as my little girl suddenly exclaimed, “Mommy it glows!” I was taken by such surprise that at first I was not sure what she was speaking about, but at closer inspection realised that I completely forgot about the Coleman Glow-in-the-Dark Youth Star Quad Chair.

I was just as amazed as she was at the beauty of it and called my little boy closer to have a look.  They sat huddled together counting the stars with their fingers. Now and again, I even caught my little girl staring at the night sky in wonder. I must admit when I read glow in the dark, I did not expect this much from the product. Although I must advise parents out there that the amount of glow it emits will all depend on the amount of time it charges via a light source as well as how dark the environment is that the chair is in afterwards. This is something you will most likely have to explain to your little ones as well, as I had to the next time when my daughter put the chair in her closet to inspect again.

Not only is this chair a fun and interactive learning method for children, but it also encourages them to be curious about the world around them. In addition, it is also very easy to unfold and quite safe, as my little girl has unfolded it many times on her own. It is also a versatile chair as it is easy to pack in or carry with you as you set out with your next adventure with the family. Therefore, I would definitely recommend looking at this range of chairs by Coleman; it will put the fun into outdoors and learning.
