STORY & PHOTOS BY DAVE QUINN


SO YOU HAVE PROVEN THEM ALL WRONG— your camping trips and adventures didn’t end when kids entered your life. Not only do you still get out, your kids enjoy it as much as you do. But getting children to eat healthy foods is always a challenge for parents, especially while camping when they’re out of their normal routines. While in the backcountry active parents are often left wondering what to feed their kids to ensure they are getting the energy they need and are laying the foundation for a lifetime of outdoor enjoyment and healthy eating. As with anything in Kidland, the only way to ensure a long-term connec- tion with wilderness and to encourage healthy eating is to make it fun. Bad weather, cranky youngsters or parents, and leaky tents can make an outing diffi - cult, but poor camp food that no one eats can outright ruin the entire trip. Roll up your sleeves, unleash your


creative spirit, and start your kids’ life- time of wilderness appreciation the right way, with good food. Here are a few ideas—a day’s worth of recipes— that will help you and your kids have more fun and eat better in the campground or backcountry. Bon appetit!
