We chose Choco­late as our Unit Study this week!

I just loved how much the kids enjoyed this. The sci­ence and the his­tory (and the tastes) asso­ci­ated with Choco­late proved very interesting!

We read sto­ries about the Rain For­est, since that’s where the Cacao Tree grows, han­dled REAL cocoa but­ter, and learned about how choco­late bars are made.
My daugh­ters can eas­ily rec­og­nize & read HERSHEY’s on a label now!

We also did blind taste tests using a bag of Hershey’s miniatures.

Here are my girls taste testing:

Here is my youngest DD’s Choco­late Lapbook:

Although Hands of A Child has a Choco­late Lap­book project pack, I put this one together on my own.

We topped off our study with watch­ing Willy Wonka & the Choco­late Fac­tory and bak­ing Peanut But­ter Blossoms.
