I'm a firm believer that the best toy for kids is nature. Teach them good safe habits, supervise them when you need to and let them go. It's amazing what they'll learn and come up with if you let them.
Just got back from a weekend camping trip. Just a state park this time, but the smell of woodsmoke still evokes the wilderness. Was good to see the kids back in the woods building a 'fort' and collecting acorns. I'm sure the wild turkeys that raided their cache the next morning were grateful for their efforts.
