Hike It Baby - Parents and Kids Walking Groups

Hike It Baby is a terrific initiative to bond with your children and introduce them to the wonderful outdoors, as well as getting fit and indulging kids' natural sense of exploration and adventure.
The organisation began in the US, with local Hike It Baby groups springing up around the country as a way for parents to meet other parents. Life as a mother (or father if you are a SAHD) with a new baby can seem isolating and a never-ending cycle of laundry, feeding and nappies, but it need not be so, as it offers an opportunity to get out on the trail with baby, and has options and varying paces suitable for wherever your baby is at - carrier, pram or independent walker. Many walks also incorporate a park stop-off for the rugrats to burn off some energy or for little ones to be fed.
Hike It Baby encourages the building of a local community where you can meet other parents, your kids can play with other kids and learn how to socialise with other adults.
Now, a chapter of Hike It Baby has begun in the St. George area, with most walks exploring local pockets of nature around Oatley, Como and the Cooks River. An inclusive and friendly bunch, group participants are encouraged to lead their own hikes if they like, and share their favourite walks with others.
