Highlights of the week for my little ones included chocolate math.  What better way to get a 4,5, and 6 year old counting and completing simple addition?  These books and the yummy chocolate treats were definite catalysts to learning.
 
The kids also enjoyed their virtual trip to Brazil.  There were so many exciting sights to see and experience.  It's a beautiful country!  Finally, the Chocolate Challenge DNG has the kiddos re-thinking their chosen future professions.  Yes, policemen, firemen, veterinarians, and dance teachers are wonderful, but chocolatiers?  Now, that is a job they really seem to think they could enjoy.  Not going to lie... I see some perks (as well as tipping scales)! 

Chocolate Challenge was really fun.  It's a great way to wind down the school year or a special treat to share with your family over summer break.  Only $7.95, and you are ready to Download-N-Go.  What are you waiting for?  Not ready to take this chocolate connoisseur's  word?  Then, read what other homeschool moms are saying...  Although, it's a study on chocolate - they are all raving!
