Polar Bear Coolers Lunchbox to College Backpack
Keep the the little ones’ lunch at safe temp at school and still cool by the end of the last after school activity with the smaller Polar Bear Cooler and go with a bigger backpack style Polar Bear Coolers for high school and college. I would ditch the dorm fridge for any of these in a heartbeat.
I discovered these amazingly well constructed Polar Bear Coolers soft coolers ages ago and have gifted them to many friends. I check them as luggage, go grocery shopping with the larger nylon 48 pack size nylon version. Polar Bear Coolers have incredibly smart insulation technology that keeps ice up to 3 days and come in all sorts of sizes and styles.
This is perfect to keep cool all the way through after school activities all the way into the weekend for a day at the beach. From waterproof, backpack style to the standard nylon style for a regular guy like me, the zip down the middle design opens up wide for easy packing and cleaning.
Polar Bear Urban Canteen vacuum insulated water bottles go hand in hand with the coolers. Together this is a great product line to get your family though summer and beyond.
Crash and Learn Drone
FlyBlocks DIY Drone Kit lets you be the technician, the engineer and pilot with this incredible drone building, crashing and flying experience. I built three of these and got addicted in the process that lets you build a flying drone from 72 pieces from scratch. Then the best part.. crash and learn as you rebuild.
FlyBlocks are a 4 in 1 Build N Fly kit concept that encourages creativity in the engineering process. Imagine how empowering it is to create something out of pieces that can not only fly, but ignite the imagination. I really love FlyBlocks DIY 4-in-1 Drone Kit for the simple fact that it encourages STEM learning
At $69.95, FlyBlocks just gave me about a hundred hours of fun!
