Have a cook out with your child.

If your child loves hot dogs you can make

Hot Dogs and Beans.



Place the beans in a casserole, add chopped onion, 2 tbsp. ketchup, a dash of mustard, 1/4 cup of brown sugar, a tbsp. of molasses. Cover with tin foil and place on hot covered grill for an hour or so. You can either cut up your hot dogs and add them to the beans or grill your hot dogs at last minute.



Buy some corn on the cob. Clean it with the kids…..give each one a paper bag and have them shuck the corn. You can also grill the corn with husks on! Add some seasoning: salt, fresh pepper grind, not too much for kids and wrap in tin foil. (you can also put a little bit of water …say a tsp. or so in the bottom of the tin foil or instead brush with oil. Cook on each side for about 15 minutes (turn over to cook the other side) Taste test and see if they are done. Your kids will have fun wrapping the corn, but do not let them place on grill.

Have kids pick some tomatoes from the garden and you cut them up and have them add a little vinegar and oil, salt and pepper, yum!



Beginning of day, if sunny, make some sun tea. Find a big gallon pickle jug or buy a plastic one from walmart. Fill up with water and add 11 tea bags. Set in the sun early in the morning. Later that afternoon, you will have some great tea for your picnic. Add lemon and ice to your glass and enjoy.



For dessert you can make smores on the grill. Just assemble smores as you usually would: graham cracker, hershey bar square, marshmallow, top with another graham cracker and wrap in heavy duty aluminum foil. Place on grill for 4 to 5 minutes. Be very careful opening so little ones don’t get burned. Buy some popsicles and fudgsicles.



Set up a sprinkler for your kids to run through on hot days! Loads of fun. Just be careful with wet grass.

Have kids play hide and seek.

Kick the ball around or have an impromptu soccer game, or football.

Provide a sand box for the little ones and some dump trucks and cars, sand buckets and shovels.

Easy Pumpkin Centerpiece

by Rachel Paxton

Need an easy, inexpensive centerpiece for your autumn table? All you need is a pumpkin and a handful of fall flowers. You can complete this project in less than an hour!

Supplies:

Pumpkin
Fall flowers
Sharp knife
Large spoon

Prepare your work area by spreading out some old newspapers.
Using a sharp knife, carefully remove the top of the pumpkin.
Use the large spoon to scoop all of the pulp and seeds out of the pumpkin.

If you need this done in a hurry for a dinner party, go ahead and arrange your flowers inside the pumpkin. If you have the extra time, let the pumpkin dry out for at least a couple of hours
before you arrange your flowers.

I used artificial flowers in my pumpkin centerpiece, but you
could also use fresh flowers. If your pumpkin is wide and deep
enough, you could place an entire flower pot in it.

Use your pumpkin to decorate your fall or Thanksgiving table, or
place it anywhere in your home to give your home the feel of
autumn.
