Our Clients Say It Best “Bryan VanMeveren is the attorney I recommend to my friends and family. He is an expert in the field of personal injury. I think that his experience of working on both the plaintiff and defendant side of insurance cases gives him a deeper knowledge of how to get the best settlement for his clients. His case analysis is thorough, concise, and all-encompassing. He has built a solid reputation with insurance companies of producing quality work which gives his clients the advantage of quicker than average settlements. “His hard work, ethics, and honesty have given him a sterling reputation in the legal community as well. Clients do not hesitate to recommend him, not only because he gets settlements done efficiently but also because he gets to know clients and treats them like family. He knows that a lot of times, people are going through some of the toughest times in their lives, and he will always take the time to talk one on one with a client. He makes their lives a priority in his life.” -L.H.

Watch Their World Expand With Every Step Hiking With Your Kids Hiking has many benefits as a family activity, such as mental health improvement, strengthening your relationships, and experiencing new sights and discoveries together. It’s also great exercise, and you get plenty of quality time, fresh air, and sunshine. Here are three guidelines to help you and your kids have fun on your next hike. Encourage Their Curiosity One of the best ways to have your children learn about the world is letting them explore it. Being there for your children and encouraging them to ask questions about flowers, bugs, or animals you see on the trail will help them expand their vocabulary and learn how things work. When they learn they can explore independently and ask about the world around them, they’re gaining the confidence to teach themselves. Bring Along Some Tools of Discovery Getting your children to engage in nature while you’re out hiking can be as simple as bringing a magnifying glass along with you. Let your kids look at leaves, rocks, insects, or anything else you might come across on the trail. You can also bring binoculars to help them look at a bird that might be perched a little too high up. Another option is a bug holder to let your kids catch smaller insects, such as grasshoppers or pill bugs, and give them a close-up look. Keep Safety in Mind While you’re out on the trail, it’s essential to make sure that both you and your family are safe. Wear breathable, noncotton material and sturdy shoes that don’t expose your toes. It’s important to dress according to the weather. For example, if the day is sunny, wear sunglasses to protect your eyes from harmful UV rays and apply plenty of sunscreen on any exposed skin. Bring your kids’ favorite snacks and water bottles for everyone to stay hydrated. It’s crucial that you also bring a fully stocked first-aid kit in case someone is injured on the hike. Starting with one of your local hiking trails can be a rewarding way to spend the day with your kids. You can watch their excitement as they expand their world with new discoveries.
