S’mores have been a summer tradition since 1927, and now there is a new reason to enjoy the summertime staple with Camp Bondfire – an interactive Facebook application on the Hershey’s Facebook page where you can discover new ways to “bond” around the campfire through weekly tips, stories, and activities from influential mom bloggers.
Now through September 7, Camp Bondfire will offer weekly tips, stories and activities focused on a variety of themes and encourage fans to join the fun by registering to be a “Camper of the Week” for a chance to win outdoor prizes like a backyard fire pit. Campers can also capture their own memories and share their photos in the Fireside Memory Book at Camp Bondfire.
Campers are invited to visit Camp Bondfire often during the summer for inspiring tips and activities around the weekly themes including:
First Fire of S’mores Season™ (Week of June 3)
Fire it up, Dad!™ (Week of June 10)
Red, White & S’mores™ (Week of July 1)
National S’mores Day™ (Week of August 5)
Back to School Bondfire™ (Week of August 12)
We love S’mores around here! I also try to have the makings on hand so when we grill we can have a desert. But recently I have been making them in the microwave. Granted they don’t taste quite as good as when they are hot off the grill but they fill that chocolatey crunchy gooeyness that you sometimes crave! I only put the grahams, chocolate, and marshmallow in the microwave for about 8-10 seconds. The marshmallow will puff up then melt the chocolate when squished together. Yummy!
I don’t really have a S’mores story.
It has been a long time since I made Smores. The last time was on a camping trip when I was in Girl Scouts.
My friend had a camp set up- I took my daughter, my niece, and my nephew. There were a lot of people there, and we just sat by the fire making smores. It’s something the kids will always remember.
My favorite S’mores story is watching my sister, with my jaw on the floor, roasting marshmallows over a candle to make them. She said they tasted good, but I took a pass!
When my kids were growing up I remember making them with my daughters during their camping trips and the same with my sons on their camping trips. A long time ago and now they make them with their own children.

I remember having s’mores as a girl in summer camp – Thanks!
My kids love them so much! Once when it was raining, we made them in the kitchen, sitting on the floor around a candle! I still can remember their faces in the candlelight! Quite a memory! 🙂
Thanks for the giveaway!
I have yet to try s’mores. I really must try them. I love toasted marshmallows and chocolate. Graham crackers are ok.
we make smores in the backyard with the kids sometimes.
I remember the taste of the cooked marshmallows for the first time 🙂
I used to love making s’mores at bonfires by the beach when I was younger. Can’t wait to do it with my kids!
ive never had smores.
I remember making them at a Girl Scout camping trip.
This is a fun giveaway. Would love this.
Our kids make smores in the winter on the stove. It’s a family affair.
havin smores at summer camp
I live in nyc and dont have a backyard/go camping so my friends and i made smores over the flame of a gas stove!!
My son answered the phone just as I was eating a Smores. I told the lady to hold on because I had a mouth full of smores. She said she totally understood and it reminded her to add them to her supply list for an upcoming trip.
we go camping annually in our backyard …lol…my daughters are not fond of the camping so we pretend and each year, we have smore by the campfire and tell ghoulish stories – – Paul T/Pauline T aka Paul Tran….. emscout9 at Hotmail dot com
Making s’mores reminds me of all the girl scout campouts I did when I was younger
I love hearing my grandson talk about making Smores in their backyard.
My grandson cooking s’mores in Florida. He loves them!
Everytime I have a Smores it brings me back right into my childhood at the campground.
We too make them in the microwave-but I thought my oldest who is 12 knew you didn’t leave it in for more than 10 sec. at a time– Marshmellow was everywhere, but it was all good and sure made us laugh…live & learn
We like to make s’mores in the winter in the microwave
Thanks!
My family owns a chocolate shop and we actually make home-made chocolate-dipped marshmallows and make our own s’mores for snack!
I don’t liek smores, so I eat the chocolate, marshmallows, and crackers separately when my family makes them.
ItsoOne of the many reasons I love camping.
When we go camping we make Dough Boys, which are s;mores but with cresent dough instead of graham crackers. They are awesome and my kids love them!
We make these on every camping trip!
I remember making these at camp! Such fun
I remember making S’mores in girl scouts and then later sharing them with my kids while camping in the middle of the woods in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.
