Hiking with your family is a such a great way to get exercise, encourage exploration of nature and wildlife, and escape the hectic schedule of everyday life. New Yorkers have so many options right outside the city!  MommyPoppins put together a great list of easy hikes for NYC families: 5 Easy NY State Park Hikes for Families in Hudson Valley.  I recently visited #3, Minnewaska State Park Preserve, and fell in love with the gorgeous, endless views of the valley.  Don’t forget to check out my list of the Best Portable Bluetooth Wireless Speakers to help choose a lightweight, easy-to-use speaker for your trip!
