Summertime Picnics
Summertime, kids, and picnics are meant to go together. Having a picnic doesn’t have to
be reserved for a day out at the beach or park. Kids love to eat outside, especially if it
means they don’t have to stop playing to come inside and get cleaned up. If you are
going to have a picnic during an outing, be sure to practice food safety and have icepacks
in with the food or cooler. Summertime Picnics Motivational & Inspirational Quotes:
Rome - the city of visible history, where the past of a whole hemisphere seems moving in funeral procession with strange ancestral images and trophies gathered from afar. George Eliot
