The days are sunny and warm, and the moon shines bright on a crisp, cool evening. It’s the perfect time of year for camping with family and friends. Some of my favorite memories are fishing with our kids during the day and then heading back to camp. The sun would be low in the sky, and we would prepare dinner. Sometimes it was trout on the grill, or foil dinners were always popular and easy. If you have never had a foil dinner, you’re missing out on a quick and easy meal. We often broke out the frisbee or football while waiting for dinner.
After dinner, sit around the campfire and tell stories, sing songs or see who can find constellations in the night sky the quickest. The hours pass by quickly when you enjoy time with your family, watching the flames dance and change colors. And to make the night even more special, break out the fixings for s’mores. Get creative on how you make your s’more. Maybe add strawberries, bananas, or even chocolate hazelnut spread. The sky’s the limit; if you like it, go ahead and make it the way you want.
One of my favorite variations on the s’more is a take on the traditional one. But instead of graham crackers, use two chocolate chip cookies with a toasted marshmallow, peanut butter, and chocolate hazelnut spread. Or you can use a chocolate bar instead of the hazelnut spread if you prefer. In The Outdoor Kid Happy Camper gift box, I’ll share a few favorite s’more recipes, and you’ll get an expandable s’more fork to help roast your marshmallows. Of course, if you, your kids, and your family create a true s’more masterpiece, we would love to see pictures or hear about it. You can post them on The Outdoor Kid Facebook page.
The Outdoor Kid Happy Camper gift box is a wonderful gift that will help your child explore the great outdoors and will provide hours of fun and learning. The time you spend with kids learning, exploring, and having fun will benefit them for their lifetime.
Happy Camping!
