It's a lovely day here today. The weather is clear and a little breezy. Just the right kind of day for a picnic outside. Bring a kite too, its also great kite flying weather.

Put together a picnic the easy way. Bring bread, cold cuts, cheese and mustard and make your sandwiches outside. That way there is less mess in the kitchen. Don't forget something to drink, juice is nice on picnics. If you have snacky foods like chips or peanuts grab them too.

Spread an old blanket out on the grass. Make sure the grass is free of things to stick you, like thistles or your Mom's garden! Sit on the blanket and have your feast. Chat, sing goofy songs, or play games. Enjoy the day and being outside.

When you're done, tidy up. Its pretty easy to tidy up a picnic. After you take the games, garbage and leftovers inside you just pick up your blanket and give it a shake. The birds and bugs will be happy to eat up all your crumbs.

Too bad you can't have a picnic outside every day.
