I introduced a song called "Hot cocoa" found over at Teach preschool blog . We used real marshmallow for visual aid.

we then had hot cocoa,cocoa goldfish with mini marshmallows and marshmallow for snack .
We added mugs ,cotton balls, empty cocoa boxes empty cocoa packets i printed this and lameated them and spoons to play kitchen area . (i was served hot cocoa all day )ok i toss my cocoa box out this week end so i have to make my own and made my own packets .
We also took a mug cut out and did some math with marshmallow (i love food math )
So i hold up an number and they add that many marshmallow to the mug . Then they get to eat the marshmallows when we where all done yummy!
We read if you give a mouse a cookie to finish out day .
I did not do this but chocolate scented play dough... would be a fun idea to .
These are great ideas with hot coco. I especially like the craft and coco props in the kitchen area. I've included your post on my weekly favorites here: http://play2grow.blogspot.com/2011/02/weekly-favorites-for-february-6-2011.html
