Dig a hole and surround it with rocks!. Keep the dirt near by incase the fire gets out of hand!. also keep buckets of water near by!.
As for what to use, you could get those long two prong forks with wooden handles or just use some sticks!. Sharpen one end a little!. Use maybe like a pine or a mesquite stick!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Dig a little bit of a whole, not much, just enough to get all the grass out of the way, and gather some large rocks, ones about the size of your hand will work!. Form a circle out of the rocks in the dirt you just cleared, then have who ever is roasting the marshmellows gather some sticks and build a little teepee out of them!. Take some regular paper, not any with ink on it, and have an adult light the paper then place it in the sticks!. Soon there should be a little bit of a fire, not huge, but enough to roast some marshmellows!. Be safe and have fun!Www@FoodAQ@Com
Use a 5 lb coffee can;-} punch holes around the bottom,
using a juice-type can opener (triangular)!.
Put a stack of charcoal or briquettes in the can!.
You'll need some newspaper scrunched up on the bottom!.
Don't use lighter fluid;-{ the taste will wreck the MMs!.
If you don't have any fondue forks, use coat-hanger wires!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Maybe you can just use a coffee can and build a little fire in that and then use twigs for the marshmallows if you don't have a couple of long-handled forks or skewers!.

Long skinny sticks from the trees or shrubs in the yard work great for skewering marshmallows!. When I was young and lived in NYC we always used the hot coals in the grill to roast the marshmallows!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
