Looking for a fun and easy activity to keep the family busy for a couple of hours? Have an outdoor picnic! Find a grassy area in your town, or set it up right in your backyard. And if you want this to be an all-day event, recruit your kids and have them prepare the food with you.
Speaking of food, keep three things in mind when deciding on a menu. The food should be portable, mess-free, and should keep well in the sun. We recommend foods like wraps, sandwiches, dessert bars and potato and pasta salads (put them in jars for convenience!).
Have fun and enjoy!
