Birthday Camp-Out

This is a great party to have on a summer evening. Or have a camp-in any time of day or year in a basement or other room that can be darkened. These ideas will delight kids ages 6 to 11.

From the bhg.com Recipe Center, we've pulled together four kid-friendly menus that can be served at any birthday bash:

All-Munchies Menu

Classics with a Twist Menu

Hearty Bites Menu

Ultimate Favorites Menu

Camp Rations

For delicious food that ties into the party theme, try these suggestions:

  • Hot dogs (for ages 4 and up): If you have a campfire, let guests roast their own hot dogs on sticks. Be sure that the dogs are allowed to cool before they're eaten.
  • S'mores: Place a few squares of a Hershey's chocolate bar on a graham cracker. Roast two marshmallows and place on top of the chocolate. Top with another graham cracker and let the chocolate melt a little bit before eating.
  • Drinks: Any beverage is fun when served from canteens.
  • Ants on a log: Stuff celery sticks with peanut butter and top with raisins.
  • Mud: Serve chocolate pudding ("mud") sprinkled with crushed chocolate sandwich cookies ("dirt") and topped with gummy worms.
  • Trail mix: Mix together food such as candy coated chocolates, peanuts, raisins or dried cranberries, and unsweetened cereal.
