As parents we often wonder how to best prepare our kids for real life. They won’t always be under our roof, so how do give them the tools and courage they need to go out into the world in strength?

One of the keys ways we have seen kids develop incredible fortitude and spiritual depth is through outdoor experiences. Our friends at the Coldwater Foundation provide wilderness journeys for kids 12 and up. In this episode from the archives, Carole talks with Kevin Sutton, co-founder of Coldwater, about the ways wilderness experiences help prepare kids for real life.

Coldwater still has some openings in their trips for older students, ages 16 through 18. To learn more visit their website, coldwaterfoundation.org.
