Why do boys love adventure?

Mark Twain said, “There comes a time in every rightly constructed boy’s life that he has a raging desire to go somewhere and dig for hidden treasure.”

The search for adventure drives some boys to video games, where they can conquer kingdoms and gain virtual accolades.  Others find their adventures in sports.

But deep down, the call of the woods, the wild, the mountains and the seashore live deep in all young boys.

You can feed that desire and strengthen the bond with your son at the same time.  Take him on a wilderness adventure, or hike to a waterfall, or camp in the woods by a crackling fire amidst the lightning bugs.  Lead him on his adventure!
