PRO TIP:

If you're a decade late on the whole GO PRO thing, you are no longer a dollar short.

You can now get the formerly #1 GoPro 7 with all cool features and 95% of all the current $600 version's bells and whistles, for around $100 with a little effort on Amazon or Ebay. Includes free access to minimal effort (and even automatic highlights) online editing and footage WAY more interesting than your smartphone, including underwater/rain/watersports shooting. Get your kids outside, and then editing their own footage, rather than simply "consuming" content.

Btw, the first commercial outboard engine was invented today in 1903 when a young lad Evinrude offered to row across a lake to get ice-cream for a girl he was sweet on.. The melted mess he returned with inspired him to find a faster way.

PS, she married him

PPS: Covid finally killed Evinrude, they announced in 2020. (I thought boating increased along with cocooning?) Oh well, not a bad run!

This makes it easy. The only thing in my life that qualifies is my 18 month old granddaughter. Everything else is pretty bleak.

If you adhere too strongly to that principle the state will kill you. Just ask Meursault.
