Physical Activity<\/strong>
Summer is a time for lots of outdoor activity, including camping! Unplug your wi-fi and get outdoors for a camping adventure this summer. No access to the woods? The good news is that you don\u2019t have to head to nature for a great camping adventure \u2013 you can pitch a tent right in your own backyard or make a fort in your living room! Here are some great ways to add in some physical activity to your camping fun:
\u2022 Grab some pals or siblings and play flashlight tag<\/a> or capture the flag<\/a>
\u2022 Use chalk on your driveway or paper plates in your yard for a giant game of twister<\/a>
\u2022 Go on a nature scavenger hunt
\u2022 If you have a partner, play human Rock, Paper, Scissors<\/a>
\u2022 Try Geocaching<\/a> or Letterboxing<\/a> for a local treasure hunt
Is it rainy or you\u2019re stuck inside? Give these indoor activities a try:
\u2022 Blow up a balloon or two and play indoor baseball or volleyball
\u2022 Use what you have to do some indoor bowling or make your own indoor golf course
\u2022 Dust off your acting skills with \u201cbag-o-stuff improv skits<\/a>\u201d
\u2022 And, if all else fails, play some classic camp card games<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nutrition and Healthy Eating<\/strong>
Healthy Camping Treats: Banana S\u2019mores<\/span><\/strong>
Camping (at a site or in the backyard) is a great way to soak in some vitamin D while appreciating nature- and today we\u2019re sharing an easy way to keep campfire eating fun AND healthy! This summer as you pitch a tent, make sure to try our Campfire Banana S\u2019mores!
Ingredients:
\u00b7 medium ripe banana
\u00b7 1 small handful of mini marshmallows (10-15)
\u00b7 1 spoonful of dark chocolate chips
\u00b7 2 low-fat graham crackers
\u00b7 Foil
Instructions:
\u00b7 Ask an adult to cut through the peel on the inside curve of the banana, but leave the banana in the peel. Cut the banana in half lengthwise (not through bottom peel); then cut crosswise. Add marshmallows into the banana and top with chocolate chips.
\u00b7 Place the prepared banana in the foil and crimp closed.
\u00b7 Cook the S\u2019more packet on the campfire until the s’more is warm and melty (about 5-8 minutes). Use graham crackers for scooping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
