When I was little, my dad and I hiked in the redwoods, and he would often let me dash ahead on the trail to see the forest first, just like Martin & Sylvia do. When I got tired from all that running, one of my favorite snacks was a bright red, “fruit roll-up.” For my kiddos, we don't do fruit roll-ups, but we do enjoy homemade fruit leather.

These DIY Explorer bags are quick to put together and you might just have most of the items hanging around your house already.
