FOR PARENTS, EDUCATORS & CURIOUS ADULTS

A little preparation.
A lot of possibility.

Start with one good question. Choose a resource that fits the time, materials, and company you have.

JUST LOOKING AROUND?

Begin with a story.

Preview a short film yourself. Pick one question to discuss afterward: What did you notice? What surprised you? What would you want to find out next?

READY FOR SOMETHING OFFLINE?

Try a paper investigation.

The Case of the Changing Chocolate uses a pencil and supplied clues. It needs no ingredients, heat, cutting, or food handling. Read the adult notes first and choose either the illustrated or low-ink edition.

The case uses invented observations as a learning model. Its age and timing guidance are design estimates; family trials have not been completed.
