Hi Dana!

I have seen a group of kids make marshmallow towers. They were to make the tallest tower they could. I'm thinking I might do this in a limited amount of time.

I don't really get the whole "town" idea. How do you build a whole town? Businesses and the like, right? That could take a LONG time.... but easier on the hostess! HA HA!

The little girl I care for is having her birthday party next Saturday, so I am scrambling for ideas! Thank you again for your website!
