Since Samuel and I were fresh from our first backpacking trip,
I was dying to share all the fun toys with the kids!
We simulated wilderness conditions by giving them
tools and ingredients
you'd carry with you on the trail.
That meant that before we got cooking...
We needed clean water!
The kids got a kick out of using the water purifier.
Samuel threw dirt in the pool,
which really wasn't necessary since the pool
is almost always a little gross anyways.
With Iris being sure not to lose a single drop
of precious clean water,
we could move on to the next step...
Chocolate Pudding Surprise!
Powdered milk is a little wonky to get used to,
but once you work with it a bit,
you can create some really tasty stuff.
Note:
It helps too if you've hiked your buns off
and are ready to eat just about anything!
Owen wrapped up our evening by making a batch
of warm chocolaty goodness.
He did a great job,
and a decent amount of the powder
actually made it into the pot!
...
Happy Trails!
