Bought the Anker Soundcore speaker for the backyard and it's been a total game-changer
Got it on sale for like $45. Never thought I'd be the dad playing music during yard time but honestly? Kids are outside more, I'm outside more, we're all in better moods. Had a impromptu dance party last weekend that went way too hard.
If you're on the fence about it, just get it. Best small purchase I've made as a parent.
I'm not sure if this is a dad thing but I genuinely love being the music guy now. There's something really satisfying about having the right vibe while the kids are playing.
