We were home for a couple of days and then I took the kids camping. Once I’d told them we were going, totally unprompted, they got straight on with the meal planning coming up with breakfast, lunch and dinner for each day, not forgetting the smores for the campfire. When meal planning is part of their life from an early age, it becomes second nature.
