Picnic Checklist
Be prepared to pack a blanket, a picnic basket with crockery, storage boxes for the food and chilled/frozen drinks that can be used as cold packs. This saves a lot of packaging waste and protects the environment.

Picnic food ideas should be easy to transport and not perishable. Finger food, snacks and sandwiches are therefore ideal for picnics. Especially for picnics with children, there should always be something sweet on the menu. Not for eating, but still an important item on the picnic list: Sun cream, bug spray and something warm to wear in case it gets a bit chilly in the evening.
There are countless things you can experience and discover together on a picnic:
Watching insects and butterflies
Playing cloud cinema
Playing skat, badminton and boccia, football or throwing a frisbee
read a book aloud
Picking bouquets and making flower wreaths
