Here's how:
- Make a batch of s'mores at home (see our recipe here) and wrap each in tin foil
- Whip up some hot chocolate and pour it into a big thermos (the kind that you lug to soccer games will work perfectly)
- Draw a colorful sign that lists what you're selling and how much it costs (e.g. $0.50/s'more). Bonus points for deciding to donate your proceeds to your favorite charity - be sure your sign tells everyone which organization you're supporting! Need a list of great causes for tweens? Here are some ideas:
- The F.E.E.D. Foundation
- Kidz Helping Kids
- VH1's Save Our Music
- U.N.I.C.E.F.
- Milk and Bookies
- Load a sled with a basket of the foil-wrapped s'mores, the thermos, a stack of napkins, a sleeve of cups, and a bowl of extra marshmallows and bring it with you to your neighborhood park/slope/hill
- Watch the crowds of hungry sledders swarm your sled!

What a COOL idea! we just got a lot of snow in my neighborhood and that would have been great! We also heard about a group of neighbors around my school who handed out candy bars and water bottles to people caught in a big traffic jam (2 hours to 2 blocks NO JOKE). Thanks for the AWESOME IDEA!<3
Ooh - I love that neighbors got together to help out folks stuck in the snow. Here in D.C., some folks were stranded for 9 hours trying to get home.
