The Secret to Active, Outdoorsy Kids

The D-Sledge

“Wassup G-Mommy! J-Money said I could come play X-box, yo! We be in the basement if you feel like bringing us some snacks.”

And you wonder why there’s a childhood obesity epidemic! What ever happened to “Good afternoon, Mrs. Gault. Can Jenny come out to play?”

With so many fun things to do at home, you’ve got to give the kids a reason to get outside. And what better reason than the D-Sledge?

Brought to you by Icelandic Market, the D-Sledge is an update on the classic sleds handmade in Dalvik, Iceland for generations. Unlike their old-timey predecessors, however, D-Sledge sleds are made of polyethylene plastic, not wood – so no splinters in the you know whatster. A definite improvement (and we speak from experience).
