Other Great Things to Serve 
Super saltine snacks
Saltine crackers never had it so good as they will when you top them with some peanut butter and a large marshmallow, and then brown them up until the marshmallow spreads and turns a golden tone. Crunchy, chewy and delicious!
Grilled bacon and cheese
Breathe new life into an age-old favorite – the grilled cheese sammy – by adding mayonnaise, garlic, salt and pepper, grilled bacon and mushrooms. Voila! You’ve got yourself a new family favorite!
Pizza time!
Who doesn't love a delicious hot pizza? For something a little bit different, try your pizza with a topping you've never tried before, like BBQ chicken, pineapple or feta cheese.

Beverage Tips 
For the kids
Have plenty of kid-size and friendly drinks on
hand, such as mini water bottles, juiceboxes or pouches (apple, orange,
grape, cranberry) or lemonade or iced tea. For something a bit
different, mix orange juice and ginger ale together and garnish with
orange slices.
For the grown-ups
In the colder months, tea, coffee and hot chocolate are real
crowd pleasers. For the over-21s in your family, make sure you have a
variety of alcoholic drinks on hand such as beer, wine, and mixable
liquor favorites such as vodka and rum.

Family Party Tips 
- Host your own family talent show! Nothing gets the good
times rolling better than seeing your family’s hidden talents
– or lack of! See if you have the next singing idol or
award-winning musician in the house by having everyone perform.
- Have family “storytelling” –
every family member loves hearing great tales, regardless of which
generation or member they are about. Your family defines you, so
don’t hesitate to let everyone share their own hilarious or
prideful tales of adventure.
- Keep everyone involved – whether it’s
in set-up or clean-up, everyone loves to help out, so go ahead and
assign “chores” to all your helpers in the house.
- Don’t forget the camera and camcorder!
