GoPro's Guide to the Ultimate Family Vacation: Mounting from a Kid's Perspective
05/09/2023
GoPro's accessibility, ease of use and durability make it the best option to let anyone in the family record the fun they're having and create lasting memories. With HERO11 Black and a wide range of accessories, kids can take a turn filming the family from their point of view, without missing a beat.
The Handler
There's no better way to cool off in the hot summer sun than by taking a dip. Whether it's the pool, ocean, lake or river, no kid can resist the call of the water. With summer vacation hotspots often consisting of spots to swim, it's essential to have all the HERO11 Black accessories to make it easy for your kids to capture their water-filled adventures.
With The Handler's non-slip grip, kids can film with the control and stability of a pro. Considering how often kids are doing flips into pools and trying out new water sports like boogie boarding, surfing and water skiing, The Handler is a must for capturing adventures on the water. If you accidentally drop The Handler while in the water, it also floats!
Even better, with how compact it is, The Handler can comfortably be packed in the family's luggage on every trip without sacrificing room for souvenirs.
The Floaty
With the kids in control of filming, parents will of course be a little concerned for the safety of their camera. Lucky for them, the HERO11 Black is tough, built to last and can withstand every belly flop, dive and water fight.
Parents can increase their peace of mind by utilizing Floaty. With protective padding and a tether point for added security, no child will lose their GoPro. If for some reason it does become disconnected or dropped in the water while being used, Floaty will do what the name implies and float your GoPro back to the surface. Floaty's wraparound design also provides easy access for kids to use the buttons and touch screen no matter how slippery it gets.
Plus, you can't miss the bright orange casing, making it visible in all types of environments, from the pool to the ocean.
The Shorty Mini Grip
With its concise and convenient size, the Shorty Mini Grip is a fantastic kid-friendly option for capturing vacation moments. This adaptable accessory gets every angle just right and has a built-in tripod that can be set up for group or action shots in any setting. If the kids need a little extra height, they can extend the Shorty's pole to get the range they need.
No matter where the trip takes you, the Shorty can come with. Fit it easily into a backpack, a purse or even a pocket, making it a perfect non-bulky companion for every family's GoPro needs.
No matter the trip, GoPro is the ultimate companion to capture every second. Once you're back home, the GoPro Quik App can be used to check out which moments the kids caught and then seamlessly edit and share the clips to relive your favorite vacation memories.
Cant get enough?
To find these and other accessories for kids to use with the HERO11 Black, head on over to the Shop by Activity page and filter by Kids + Pets.
