Candy Math and Science

Are you drowning in candy like we are? My post today is dedicated to all families everywhere who have way more candy than they know what to do with. I will show you today how to use candy to make your kids smarter. That's right! Use your candy to do math and science. Your kids will love you for it (because CANDY!) and you can rest easy knowing they are using their brains and learning some cool stuff.
