ALL children, or at least most of them, love sitting around a fire. A bonfire is more exciting than a movie or a video game. I recently came across this plan at Mother Earth News for a homemade fire pit that is fairly inexpensive and it seems easy to make. If you have a backyard and young children, this would be a good investment. By the way, you can make great “fire nachos” by putting fresh tomatoes, tortilla chips and shredded cheese in aluminum foil and putting the packet right inside the fire at its edge where you can easily retrieve it after about five minutes of intense heat.
