Snacks!

Next month we will be nestled into our campsite in Yoho so I better get going on listing our tips and tricks so I don't forget any of them!!

Hiking, climbing, sight-seeing, etc can really wear the kids (and mom and dad) out so camping snacks are a MUST! We will be bringing along granola bars and some fruit but it's fun to try some snacks that are just right for the campfire. Smore's are a given.... but we like to bring along some Jiffy Pop popcorn. Here is a way to make your own Campfire Popcorn with aluminum foil, popcorn kernels, and vegetable oil:

As I mentioned earlier, Smore's are a hit for camping. Marshmallows, chocolate, and graham wafers.. Yum! But there are many different versions you can try for mixing it up a little. Like:
