Food and kids connect. And the sweeter the food the better. My boys always perked up when it came to edible learning. Whatever subject it is, edible projects are some of my boys best memories and teaching moments.
Teaching through edible manipulatives is another advantage we have over public school because with so many allergies, public schools are limited in edible hands-on projects.
