If you got kids like me, you know summer break is coming up. School's almost out.

It's time for that perennial question. How do you keep your kids occupied off the couch

when you're busy on long summer days? You sick of yelling at them, get out of the house and go,

oh, sorry! Well, how do you do that? Look no further. We've got a book that will provide the answer

to that very question and it'll provide you a lot more. My new title, Catch a Crafish Count the Stars,

Chock full of fun activities and adventures that will help build serious outdoor kids. We're talking

knowledgeable, tough, competent kids with a little bit of a raw edge to them. You want to build up a good

hunting buddy, a good fishing buddy out of your kid? Well, start him young by teaching them how to

build a wildlife viewing blind. How to gig a bullfrog. How to navigate through the wilderness using

a variety of orientating skills. They'll also learn how to climb trees, build emergency shelters,

hunt for fossils, gut fish, track critters, and much more. It's me, Eater's first book for kids.

And one, I've been wanting to write my whole career. I was just waiting until I had kids long

enough to give me some expertise on the subject. And now that my oldest is 13, I've been at this

a long time. We've got projects and activities for the whole family to do together. And for kids to

try out on their own, go to the meateater.com to pre-order your copy of the book today. It's for kids

eight and up. Catch a crayfish, count the stars, raise some serious outdoor kids with some serious

know-how. Get the book now. Welcome to the Wire to Hunt Podcast. You're home for deer hunting
