Laura from Celebrate and Detail shares a darling Beach inspired picnic that is the perfect summer lunch for kids!Hello, my name is Laura Orlando from Celebrate In Detail. I am so excited to be part of Camp Littles & Me beach week! Summer is here and what a better way to celebrate than at the beach! My kids and I love the beach and we can’t always get there, so I wanted to bring the beach to my own backyard. I created a backyard beach style picnic for my kids!

I wrapped each item in small clear bags and tied them with pretty yellow ribbon. I used my square mini bottles for the kids drinks and filled them each with some cold ice water. Then I tied on a colorful striped paper straw to each bottle.
