On my quest to find some wind energy information for another post, I ran across this recipe. It sounds like fun, and I know my kids would love it! Thought I'd share it with everyone...
The recipe and other energy activities for kids can be found here... http://www.alliantenergykids.com/stellent2/groups/public/documents/pub/phk_fg_001535.hcsp#P-4_0
Solar S’mores
Be sure to get permission and help from an adult for this activity! This activity works best
when the outdoor temperature is 85 degrees Fahrenheit or higher.
To make two s’mores, you will need:
• Four graham crackers
• 16 miniature marshmallows
• Two plain chocolate candy bars
• A 9x13, or similar sized, glass baking dish
• A clear glass lid to cover the baking dish
Step 1:
Place four graham crackers side by side in the bottom of the glass baking dish.
Step 2:
Place a chocolate bar on two of the graham crackers.
Step 3:
Place eight mini-marshmallows on top of the other two graham crackers.
Step 4:
Cover the pan with the clear glass lid, and place it outside where it will be in direct
sunlight.
Step 5:
Wait for the marshmallows and chocolate to melt.
Step 6:
Put one chocolate and one marshmallow cracker together and enjoy!
