1. First decide the day. It would be better to plan a picnic at home on everyone’s holiday i.e. Sunday, so that everyone can participate in it. Once the day is decided, choose the location. If there is a big park near the house and there are open grounds, swings etc. for walking and playing, then you can make a program to go there. Having space around the house saves time, allowing you to spend more time with your loved ones.

3. Food and drinks are most important in a picnic, so leave no stone unturned in planning it. Divide the menu into three parts: refreshments, lunch and evening tea. In each category, especially include things that most people like, like tea, coffee, light snacks with juice, etc. Include some heavy items in lunch, like sandwiches, fried rice, burgers. Drink tea in the evening after lunch. Keep light things like biscuits, wafers, chips, muffins with it. Along with this, arrange for drinking water and chocolate, juice, chips etc. for the children to have refreshments in between.
