Welcome back to kids short stories. Today's story is brought to us by two of our friends,

Wret and Henry. Hey guys, they sent us an awesome idea for a story and you can too. Head over to

our Instagram page kids short stories or go to kidshirt stories.org. Send us your idea for a story and

maybe we'll turn it into an awesome adventure.

Are you ready for this one?

Me too, let's go! Mom can we do it can we do it can we do it hurry please no please

Wret and Henry had just finished dinner and their parents had told them after dinner that they would be able to go in the backyard

and make a little campfire to cook marshmallows! Who likes roasting marshmallows.

Who likes roasting marshmallows?

Me too!

Oh, these were so good.

They had got super big marshmallows. Do you know the kind of marshmallows that are like really big and you put them on a stick and you hold them over a campfire and then they get nice and

toasted and then you eat them up. Oh man I kind of want some right now.

Well they were very excited and the first thing that you have to do when you want to cook

marshmallows is you have to get some sticks and some wood to put in the fire.

Yeah.

Did you know that when you're building a campfire,

you need some paper, you need some sticks and some wood, and you need a grown-up like your parents to hold the

fire, the lighter, and it's their job to start the fire.

But it's our job to collect all the sticks that we can find.

And so, Wret and Henry, we're both working very hard, running all over the yard, picking up sticks and pieces of wood, and putting them in their campfire spot.
