Before the campout even begins, plans for what to food to eat, how to store food, and how to prepare it are very important. Depending on the age of your child, you may want to have him assist you with this planning.

Once a menu has been set, you need to ensure that all of the food will be well stored. You not only want to make sure that no food spoils, but you also want to make sure it is sealed well to prevent bugs and animals from eating it.

It will also make running the errands more enjoyable for you.
