25+ Ways to Learn with Candy

Got candy? I know we do! Here are some ideas and ways kids can learn with candy!

 

Here are some activities our homeschool group recently did with candy…AND a round-up of more FABULOUS ways to learn with candy.

After decorating paper bags (to store all their candy), we read Harriet’s Halloween Candy, a book that has some fabulous opportunities for making predictions and inferences…and a great lesson for what will happen if you eat too much candy.

 

Then the games began!

1. Candy Corn Number Math {FREE PRINTABLE! from This Reading Mama}

2. Boo Bump (3 dice addition game)

3. Sink or Float with Candy-a lesson on surface tension

4. Skittle Color Sorting  – I used markers to color in each circle so MBug (currently 2 years old) would know where to put each color

5. Skittle Graphing

6. The floating M- we focused on making predictions…what will happen if we put our M&M’s in water?

7. M&M Color Mixing- we mixed the primary colors to create the secondary colors
