Go on about.com and key in foil packets. You should have a few ideas there, as well as typing in camp meals. Also you can go MacScouter.com. They have menu plans for outdoor cooking.

Make stuff ahead of time and bring it in the cooler. Just remember to get ice often. You can bring milk for cereal, already made tuna or chicken salad, potato and pasta salads and precooked & chilled breaded or grilled chicken for salad toppers or sandwiches. If you don't want to bring a cooler then you can still do chicken or tuna salad just bring small unopened containers of mayo so you don't need to keep it cold and you can discard what you don't use. Also fresh veggies and fruits don't need refridgeration.

I have some great easy (& healthy meals) on my website http://www.rvworldllc.com/recipies.shtml. I have a 4 yr old and we go camping a lot and he loves most of these recipes. Have fun!

We always make baked potatoes. All you have to do is rub salt around the outside of them, wrap them in a couple layers of tinfoil, and throw them in the campfire (make sure you can get them out again - and use tongs or a stick!). They should be done after 30 to 45 minutes. Also, instead of putting ice in the coolers, freeze bottled water. It keeps cartons and food from getting soaked, you don't have a cooler full of water to dump at the end, and you have bottled water to drink after it melts!

For 2 nights, that sounds like plenty to me. Maybe some beanie weenies, and by fruit if you mean melons, definitely plenty.

Go to your local camping store and get a bunch of "space" foods. The kids will get a kick out of it and you'll have little to do and even less of a mess to clean up.
