My favorite picnic was in our backyard with my 1 and 3 year old. They think it is so cool to eat outside.

My favorite picnic was when I surprised my 2 year old at daycare one day. We went outside to their little play area and had peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and rice krispie treats. He thought it was so cool to eat oustide on a blanket.

My favorite picnic is one where we go down to our local Riverwalk and have a picnic along the river.
Jennifer
My favorite picnic so far this year was with my family, in my sister’s backyard. All the kids had a ball playing outside, the food was fantastic, and it was so nice to sit and relax together.

My favorite picnic was when my husband and i were still dating. We really enjoyed the state park and beautiful weather.

My favorite picnic was when I was a child. We went to Forest Park in St. Louis. We picnicked by the St. Louis Zoo inside Forest Park and had a fabulous time. Thank you for offering such a great giveway.

We like to go to the water park and have a picnic there with my 4.5 year old son and his friends before we play water. But with the rains lately, we LOVE to have a picnic on the back of our minivan! They have a lot of fun eating and watching the rain.

My favorite picnic was on our vacation in South Dakota at the cutest city park ever.

My favorite picnic is on a rainy day and when the kids east expect a picnic! It takes them by surprise and we have a great time!

My favorite picnic was when my husband and I were in the mountains and took our sandwiches out on a big rock and had a picnic. It was beautiful!

We had a potluck picnic in the back yard of our church, everyone bringing anyone else they could round up, and we watched UP afterward. It was so relaxing.

My husband won’t do outdoor activities very often (It’s so hot and there are bugs!) so I consider myself lucky when I can talk him into going to the park with a couple of sandwiches. I grab whatever is on hand! If I waste too much time thinking about what to take or making something, the opportunity may have passed!

My favorite picnic was when I went to the State House in Columbia. My mom, brother and I took peanut butter sandwiches for us and bread for the squirrels. We had lots of fun.
Meliss
My favorite memory picnic is as a kid. We had our family reunion in Sarnia, Canada. At a park in a pavilian right on the water. You could see the bidge and it was always exciting to se all the HUGE cargo boats go buy. I looked forward to it every summer. Unfortunaltly most of that side of the family has passed away and we don’t have them anymore. And now you can’t just cross the canadian bridge anymore. You have to have a passport or a new ID.

My youngest son and I had a picnic recently at a local city-owned park. We were participating in a home school field trip (living books). Our food was simple (cheese, crackers, grapes, apple slices, vanilla wafers) but the company was great!

I love the picnics that we take after playdates with the local playgroup. My kids get to play and have fun and I get to visit with my friends so we both go home happy :)
