We read a book about chocolate and worked on a lap book.
Now, for some taste testing at The Cocoa Tree.
Truffles! Yum!
A delicious treat! We learned some geography (Central America), Ancient history(Mayans), science (cacao tree, pollination, cacao beans), harvesting, processing, creating, and eating...all from a little chocolate!
A few days later H came up with this joke: "mom, what is a cow's favorite tree?
"a Cacao (CACOW) tree! :)
