You don't need a Coronavirus pandemic to find yourself with a bored family that needs something useful to do, nor do you need a state-mandated quarantine to discover that you've got a season's worth of wild game that's just going to get freezer burned if you don't find a use for it. One of the most entertaining, educational and ethical ways to teach kids to use every part of the harvested animal is to enlist them in the fun of making your own jerky, snack sticks, sausages and more. You don't have to be an expert butcher to make delicious (and extremely long-lasting) snacks--in fact, we have a nice video tutorial right here. If you weren't lucky enough to inherit Grandma's special spice recipe, Hi Mountain Seasonings has got you covered with a wide array of easy (and inexpensive) solutions.
Wild game is among the healthiest sources of protein available; venison is one of the only "red meats" that cardiologists allow their patients. What's more, jerky and snack sticks store beautifully, making them an excellent part of your home-preparedness plan. Kids won't just learn fundamentals of cooking that will serve them well for the rest of their lives--they'll also feel useful and needed right here and now.
