Be sure to add antlers to the list for #35!

It gets a little boring watching the kiddos bring back sticks, rocks, and leaves all week long. Make them work for their roasted Starbursts!

The cut straw idea was a fav for me. I'm sure someone thought that would be a great idea for storing black powder untill they tried to seal the straw,lol

They left out tin foil cooking - hamburgers, baked potatoes or a packet of sliced potatoes and onions, and baked apples all in the campfire.

 

For a sunny day, there is solar cooking.  Uses two boxes, aluminum foil, and saran wrap(for the window).

 

In the fall, collect some fallen leaves, acorn tops, maple seed pods.  Then use them to make faces or other pictures.

 

Use a small bath mat inside the door to take off/leave shoes on - reduces the dirt/mud to clean up.

 

If going to have a couple days of rain when tent camping, buy a very large tarp and make a tarp tent over your tent creating a covered entrance to the tent - tent stays drier to pack-up and go home.

Love the tin foil cooking. Slice some potatoes, carrots, onion, throw a burger on top, a little S&P seal it up and throw it on the coals, good eats there!! Also just a baked potato right on the coals. I need to make a fire.
