Today’s outdoor cooking feast was lovingly named “banana squish” by my trio 🙂  It’s outdoor cooking bananas.  Doesn’t that make you want to try it 😉  It is rather delicious though, so don’t be put off by the name!!
What you need is:
1 banana per person
Chocolate chunks
Marshmallows (it’s easier with mini ones for this)
Tin foil
A knife
Plates!
 
Slice open the bananas (keeping them inside their skins). Â Then “squish” inside the slit the chocolate chunks and marshmallows. Â We did three chunks of chocolate and a small handful of marshmallows, but it depends on the size of your banana. Â Then hold the banana together, whilst wrapping it up in tin foil. Â Place them on the fire and wait for it to cook for 5 minutes.
After 5 minutes, remove them from the fire (you may want to take gloves again for this as the foil is hot in the flames), and open the foil up. Â Scoop the insides of the banana out of the skin onto a plate. Â You should be left with a lovely squishy goo of banana, melted marshmallow, and melted chocolate – yummy!

These sound delish, do you reckon I could make them under a grill? I’m not outdoorsy 🙂
Mammas School
Yes I should think so 🙂

This reminds me of forest school things. We are going to trial a forest school toddler group in our area soon

We used to do Forest School when we lived in the UK (have a read under my forests school category) and we loved it. I am now continuing that outdoor form of education with my trio out here in Sweden 🙂 It is a great activity forest school, hope it goes well. Feel free to look back at what we do for ideas 🙂
