For a lot of families, camping is a summer tradition that they don’t want to miss. While there may be lots of things to do after you have the tent pitched, there may not be a lot of things to eat. You certainly don’t want to open up a can of beans and cold hot dogs for dinner. Here are some great campfire recipes for kids to make.
