Make S’mores memories all summer long
September 2, 2011 - 12:55 pm
Whether after a ball game, or when friends drop by for a visit, S'mores are the perfect summertime treat for creating lasting family memories.
Top social media moms from TheMotherhood, an award-winning Web community, teamed with Hershey's chocolate to offer several ways your family can enjoy S'mores all summer long:
* Family activity S'mores: S'mores make a great family snack because everyone can get involved when making them. Put the little ones in charge of preparing the graham crackers and Hershey's Milk Chocolate bars. The adults and older children can take care of roasting the marshmallows. Once everything's ready, dig in and enjoy.
* Grilled S'mores: Bring S'mores ingredients and a box of aluminum foil to your next barbecue. Build the S'mores and then wrap them in aluminum foil and cook on the medium-hot grill for one to two minutes on each side.
* Summer vacation S'mores: S'mores aren't only for camping. Many hotel chains offer fire pits or grilling areas perfect for making S'mores. If you are staying home this summer, bring your S'mores ingredients to the park or playground.
* Party with S'mores: The next time you're invited to a summer party, bring S'mores ingredients as your contribution to the gathering. Guests will love making gooey S'mores and you'll be a hit at the party.
This summer, showcase your favorite S'mores memories by visiting Hershey's Facebook page and downloading the "Say S'mores" application for a chance to win S'mores-themed prizes, including a camera, photo printing gift card, outdoor fire pit, roasting skewers and all of the ingredients needed to make S'mores.
