Long summer evenings are the perfect time for cosying up around the fire for an outdoor movie and S'Mores!



Picture the scene, the sky drenched with the golden glow of a low setting sun, warmth filling the air, the crackle of a cosy fire... this is the stuff that Summer evenings are made of, so why not make the most of it and have a gathering of friends around the fire, or an outdoor movie night!

Plan your perfect summer evening

Make sure you have cleared your afternoon to give yourself plenty of time to get prepared and then have the perfect evening with friends. Invite over your nearest and dearest, maybe those that you haven't seen for a while, or those that you can sit and laugh with for hours!  Decide what drinks and snacks you will have. You could enjoy s'mores together, using one of our exclusive kits, or popcorn and a great sweets selection are always a hit with children and adults alike, we are sure that you will love the Mega Movie Box, which has plenty of popcorn and sweets to enjoy together! Pick out a movie favourite that everyone will enjoy, nothing too heavy or serious, something light and fun, that will have you all laughing or reminiscing all evening!


Make the area cosy and relaxed 
Throws and cushions, casually placed over comfortable garden furniture, a nice thick blanket or rug on the grass is a great place for kids to enjoy a movie where they can feel grounded and relaxed. Set up the screen and projector and ensure everything is ready before your guests arrive, so you can enjoy the time together. Don't forget lights, plenty dotted around the area to give a lovely atmosphere as the sun sets. No need to spend lots of money on fancy garden lights, candles work really well and the scented ones will keep the bugs away!


As the sun sets 
When the night draws in and the sun goes down, make sure everyone's drinks are topped up, make the children hot chocolates, why not top them with whipped cream and sprinkles, we have a good selection of
hot chocolate kits you could use for this and get out the S'Mores. If you have never had a S'More before you will wonder where they have been all of your life! Simply roast fluffy marshmallows on a skewer (remember to soak them in water if you use wooden ones) over the firepit, BBQ or even a candle! once the marshmallow is all golden and toasty on the outside and oozy in the centre, sandwich it between two biscuits with chocolate and enjoy!


Capture the memories
Remember to snap your memories and don't forget to tag us so you never forget the fun you all had and remind yourself to not leave it too long until the next one!


Don't forget... life is so much sweeter when it is SugarCoated!

Mum's the Word!
by Jennie Jarvis 17 Feb, 2022
We can all think of someone who has been like a mum to us, even if it is not our natural mum. Those who have influenced us with kind and supportive words and actions, or those that have been by our side, cheering us on and willing us to succeed in every way!
