I am planning a birthday party for my best friend and she requirements to toast s'mores instead of having a cake. What theme go near s'mores? Any ideas for decorations or games? (Keep surrounded by mind, we're in our belatedly 20s-early 30s). Thanks!
Answers:
For my birthday party - I'm 13, but it's still a great subject matter - we did Chocolate...we had loads of chocolate for snacks and roasted smores AND have chocolate cake. It's a great theme for revolving around smores.
Also, you can study a chocolately movie for entertainment, like the movie Chocolat (the one near Johnny Depp in it) or, but this is more for younger kids, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
Games, powerfully, we went shopping and only did sleepover things that 13 year-olds do, so we didn't do any special games. We had a small fire outside to toast the smores, we roasted marshmallows and we listen to music and sang and dance, so it would be a good theory to have some liberal of a fire going outside and a place where nearby is music and where those can 'hang out'.
Decorations:
I put lots of brown/pink/gold/white ribbons everywhere, which were cute 'chocolatey' colors. I also have a table laid out with cute chocolate napkins and lots of chocolate snacks.
I also give each entity a mug that said Chocolate at the top, and inside I gave them respectively a small towel with their given name embroidered on it. Then I put some chocolates inside of the mugs and they had small f¨ēte favors that were sound for the theme, and usable for the hot chocolate beside whipped cream (met slaagroom, we live within the Netherlands) that we had after that.
I also bought little brown beads that be long and looked like chocolate sprinkles (but wouldn't melt), and I sprinkled them adjectives over the tables to put together it look even more chocolatey.
Then I just shopped around and found other cute chocolatey things that go with the subject, and put them around the room.
It was a great and pleasurable theme, everyone loved it! You should bestow it a try!
Hope that this helped and pious luck!
All the best,

cambin... log cabin... morning at the lake.. campfire/bonfire underneath the stars.
Tell everyone to comes dressed as a s'more. Best giddup will win a tote bag full of marshmallows, chocolate bar and graham crackers.
A picnic theme, red & white checked table cloth, picnic baskets, sit on blankets, play croquet, badmitten, frisbie & rime chests to hold whatever drinks you relish!
If you're having the gala outside, have a picnic. I once saw a photo spread of a picnic where on earth all the food be served in enameled pails. Each being got a small mason jar next to gazpacho, a sandwich wrapped in wax paper. A pickle wrapped within butcher paper and some salad (I mull over it was couscous, but any salad would do) contained by another mason jar (or in a wax paper cone, I don't remember.) All the food be in the container, along with a bandanna (to use as a napkin) and utensils. Each soul carried her pail to the picnic site & they ate sitting lower than trees and on hay bales.
You can have the s'mores stuff prepared by getting another pail & padding it with sand or gravel to hold the toasting branches. Then bring out the chocolate & marshmallows.
Have fun!
Well, I know that general public in their 20's & 30's still want to own fun, and can still be silly, so why not try a camping issue as has be suggested in other posts.
Here are some thinking:
1) Tell your friends to wear their pajamas & slippers to the party (nothing too skimpy or you may hold problems).
2) Play a CD near outdoor sounds (i.e. running brook, crickets, etc.), here are some links to purchase, or you could try looking somewhere like K-mart/Wal-mart/Target - surrounded by the discount section:
http://www.atsecurecheckout.com/dusk-sou...
http://www.amazon.com/natural-sounds-wil...
2) Burn a citronella candle for that camp smell (can be found in discount stores-as nominated above, or local dollar stores).
3) Make food like hot dogs, hamburgers, potato salad, corn on the cob, & beans. You can serve them on disposable aluminum pie pan for that campout dish feel.
4) Make some fun beverages:
Cocktails for camp

5) Watch a movie with a camping/cabin issue.
Maybe a comedy like:
The Great Outdoors w/ John Candy & Dan Akroyd
Meatballs w/ Bill Murray
Little Darlings w/ Tatum O'Neal & Kristy McNichol
- Or a horror similar to one of the Friday the 13th's.
6) Decorate using a tablecloth that has bugs on it, if you can't find one use a plain plastic tablecloth and do up it with stamped bugs (go to your local craft store, capture small paint bottles and bug stamper).
- Use bug clips on your tablecloth:

7) Entertainment:

http://www.jamesgang.com/campfire/html/s...
Sing "campfire" songs -

Play cards and/or dice games.

Play charades.
Anyway, hope I have help some, have fun and content birthday to your friend!
How about "Camp (Birthday Girl's Name)"? You can plan a intact bunch of activities that will remind everyone of summer military camp days from when they were kids.
Borrow some tents and set them up within the back patio near your campfire. Hang signs on them beside camp name - "Camp Run-A-Muck", "Camp Itchy Scratchy" - that kind of article.
Play flashlight tag.
Hand out star map and identify the constellations.
Have a sack race.
Have a friend bring a guitar and sing songs by the campfire.
Tell startling stories.
Have fun!
