The world has definitely seen some strange and unprecedented days recently during this global pandemic and fun days may seem few and far between, but that doesn’t mean that the imagination and joy train of life have completely stopped. In fact it seems that when we have no dire plans to engage us or destinations to get to, our true imaginations can come out to play.
Celebrations have become our go-to activity for at home fun during these times. The lovely people of Lucy Darling have helped create wonderful “party in a box” creations to help facilitate all this celebratory fun. Each Party in a box is set is complete with everything you need for a party.

BBQ Pizza
As our backyard party adventure was camping themed we designed our food choices to match this. We made delicious homemade pizzas on the barbecue. The kids were all hands on for this delicious portion of our day! We used the adorable bear and camper plates to serve our yummy dish on. Click here for recipe
BBQ Smores
And who can forget the most delicious part of a camping expedition…the smores dessert. We made this delicious concoction of graham crackers, chocolate and marshmallow on the barbecue as well. The kids were excited to top this ooey gooey desert off with the cake mountain topper to declare their victory of backyard camping a success!
The “party in a Box” kits from Lucy Darling are definitely a fabulous all in one go to for celebration decor needs. This “little camper” kit made all my little campers have an extra special backyard adventure.
The happy little campers!
