Picnic Packing

• Pack plenty of extra beverages in a cooler (water, Kool-Aid and Crystal Light Singles) to satisfy thirst and prevent dehydration.
• Pack some sweet treats. Try fresh fruit such as melon and berries or frozen JELL-O Pudding Cups as an alternate to ice cream.
• Keep your prepared foods in the fridge until it's time to pack them up.
• Don't forget to bring some items that will get you moving. Consider packing a Frisbee, a couple of mitts and a baseball, a soccer ball or a football. If you live fairly close to the park, take your bikes, walk or rollerblade.
• Pack sunscreen! Even if it's overcast or you're lying in the shade, wearing sunscreen is always a good idea.
