Forest Adventure: Height and weight restrictions for outdoor obstacle course
Finding ways to entertain high-spirited kids can be quite a task. So when we heard about Forest Adventure, we knew it would be a great way to get the kids outside and get them climbing and zipping around. We personally love the obstacle courses and how they’ve been grouped by age-level. If your kids are up for a challenge, then Forest Adventure is the way to go! We’re still trying to forget our Bridget Jones moment on the zip line across the lake…
