Picnics Part II: Tasty Treats

By Colleen O'Connor

Picnics can be about much more than hot dogs and potato salad! The following foods are fun for children to help make and easy to serve on the go:
  • Fruit or veggie kebabs
  • Pita pocket sandwiches
  • Make-your-own trail mix or granola (each person can design their own perfect mix)
  • Hard boiled eggs
  • Dip Day: pack vegetables, fruit, chips, and pita wedges along with dips: guacamole, ranch dip, hummus, peanut butter, caramel, salsa, etc.
  • Jell-o mixed with fruit and refrigerated into individual cups
  • No-bake cookies or bars
  • Egg carton picnics
  • Taco in a bag
