Backyard Safari Outfitters Review and Giveaway! - CLOSED!

I have a little boy who loves to explore in our backyard. He brings all sorts of things in the house that I squirm over! I have found a great place to purchase toys for his backyard adventures: Backyard Safari Outfitters! Sam received The Essential Cargo Vest, Field Binoculars, and the Lazer Bug Vac! These toys are so much fun! Sam looks so cute in his Essential Cargo Vest! He can put his binoculars in the pocket and has room for all sorts of tools and gadgets! He loves taking a closer look at things with his Field Binoculars and the Lazer Bug Vac, well that's just about the coolest thing ever in Sam's mind! He loves catching bugs to examine them!
The Field Binoculars:

The Backyard Safari™ FIELD BINOCULARS are standard issue for every outdoor enthusiast. The 5×30 power crystal clear optics bring nature up close in crisp detail. Adjustable, rugged, and waterproof, these binocs are the first piece of equipment you need in your collection of ESSENTIAL FIELD GEAR.

The Lazer Bug Vac:

There are THOUSANDS of crawling, flying, buzzing bugs in your backyard—catch them LIVE with your Lazer Light Bug Vac! Look at bugs up-close with the built-in magnifying lens. The CAPTURE CORE attaches to the Backyard Safari™ Bug Habitat (sold separately) for easy transfer of your insects.


The Essential Cargo Vest:

It’s your most essential piece of field gear. It’s rugged, and tough enough for all your outdoor adventures. Plenty of cargo pockets means lots of space to load up. Six D-Rings and two shoulder epaulets let you clip and hang more essential gear. A large zipper pocket stores your trusty binocs and a clear-view chest pocket stores your Pop-Up Field Guides™. The back of the vest features a one-size-fits-all adjustable strap and two extra mesh pockets for storing extra gear. It’s the must-have for every BACKYARD SAFARI™ kid.

BUY IT:

You can purchase Backyard Safari Gear here or you can find their products at Target, Amazon, Walmart and Toys 'R Us!
