We all love the outdoors, but when the weather doesn’t cooperate and your kids have played with every rainy day toy, here is an idea and a quick treat that will make their day. This indoor campout is a simple way to keep them entertained and stretch their imagination. You can have lots of fun telling stories, ?roasting? marshmallows and eating your S’mores with no ashes or that smoky bonfire smell on your clothes.
First build a campfire together. You will need the following items (or add your own ideas for more fun):
1. Dinner Plate
2. Black piece of paper
3. Sticks
4. Yellow, Red and Orange tissue paper
Cut the tissue paper in 2 inch wide strips, about 12 inches long. Place the black paper over the plate and lay the tissue paper in alternating colors across each other (so it looks like an asterisk). Lay the sticks on the tissue and build a ?teepee? type fire pile, alternating pulling the strips of tissue paper up through the wood. As you build the wood pile, keep the wood within the edges of the plate ? it’s a lot easier to move it around.
