I take my kids hiking, camping, and backpacking at every opportunity.  Real gear is essential. Toys are toys.  One way I know I can trust outdoor gear designed for children is if it comes from I company I trust for adult gear.  The Princeton Tec Bot Headlamp fits the bill!

Small, simple, and ready for action, meet Bot. The newest and youngest member of The Family is designed with the same ergonomic features of the older members, but with a fun and bright PTec twist. Two Ultrabright LEDs housed in a variety of wild colors will certainly be the center of attention, but look beyond that. The Bot is built with the same ruggedness and reliability as the rest of the headlamps in The Family. Durable plastics, a single arm bracket, and large push button make the Bot sturdy and simple to operate. In addition, the battery compartment on the Bot screws shut to ensure that the batteries won’t be accidentally accessed. PTec reliability, PTec personality – the Bot rounds out The Family in a big way.

Would I buy this product? Yes. It is cheaper than an adult headlamp, and it would make a great stocking stuffer. The only eco-friendly properties is that it is made in the USA and uses LED technology so the bulbs and batteries last a long time.
