Kids Korner with Kenz

Everyone has experienced biting into a gooey, warm, toasty, campfire cooked s’more, but every once in a while our taste buds get bored of the basics. So here are some fun and easy campfire snacks to try around the fire pit this summer!

S’mores in a Cone

Materials:

• Marshmallows

• Waffle cones 

• Tin foil     

Fill your waffle cone with marshmallows and chocolate as well as anything else you would like in your s’mores cone, I put caramel sauce and smarties in mine. Wrap your cone completely in tin foil and place them on a metal grate over your campfire. Let them cook for about 5-6 minutes or until the marshmallows are melted. 

Octo-Dogs

Materials:

• Roasting stick 

• A pack of hot dogs 

• A sharp knife  

Grab an uncooked hot dog and cut it in half, then cut the bottom half of your hot dog four times; horizontally, vertically, and then twice diagonally. Poke your roasting stick through the other end and begin to cook it over the fire. As u cook it the octopus’s legs will slowly begin to curl. Once your hot dog is fully cooked take it off the roasting stick and enjoy. 

Campfire Nachos

Materials:

• Graham crackers  

• Marshmallows  

• Your favourite chocolate bar(s)   

• Sprinkles  

• Tin foil pan 

In a tin foil pan spread out broken graham cracker chunks, then spread your marshmallow fluff overtop, snap apart your chocolate bar of choice and place it around on top of the marshmallow, if you would like you can add sprinkles or other chocolate candies as toppings to your nachos! Cover the top of your pan with tin foil and place over the fire for 5-10 minutes, and enjoy!
