Friendly Beach Picnic Must Haves 2019

Take as much finger food as possible

Picnic foods include: apple, berries; baby carrots and other raw veggies, with hummus or eggplant dip; tortilla chips and salsa

Know what NOT to bring

Mayonnaise can go bad in the heat, so choose a different spread for sandwiches and wraps. 

Keep the kids happy

Pack beach-themed foods like goldfish crackers, Shark Bite fruit snacks

Use a shade umbrella or tent

Hand wipes 

You can’t have too many hand wipes (baby wipes work too!) to help with cleanup

Brownies and cookies are good portable desserts

Take along bottles of partially frozen water

Don’t forget a bottle opener

Spread your picnic on a tablecloth on the sand

Stock up with a cooler

Don’t forget to take some games to play after the food is eaten!
