Gear Up for Summer Adventures with Baby

On your summer to do list? Hike, bike, camp and hit the beach - all with baby in tow. This list of smart gear makes it easy.

If you love hiking, biking, camping and taking full advantage of the summer season, there’s no reason to let your new little family member slow you down. You can raise an adventurous baby, enlisting him as your sidekick, with some genius baby gear — from bike seats that let you keep an eye on your little one (and his on you) to a collapsible activity seat that’s easy to pop up for fun wherever you are.

For Road-Tripping With Baby

Have a few friends or family members to introduce your little one to this summer? After you pack the stroller, suitcase and other must-have gear in the trunk, you might not have lots of space left for a full size portable crib. Instead, try the Brica Fold 'n Go Travel Bassinet, which folds up flat into an each to carry pouch and provides a safe spot for naps or a good night's sleep.

Available at toysrus.com, $39.99.
