What is
The Chocolate Story?
The Chocolate Story is an educational program built on 5 unique workshops that all use chocolate to teach our kids some of life’s most important lessons.
The entire program is tied together by ‘The Little Chocolate Village’, a storybook written specifically for the course, to bring magic to what the student is learning and a stronger connection to the values that are woven into the program.
The Chocolate Story is full of hands-on learning, lots of kindness and a sprinkling of chocolate for good measure. The experience ends with the students taking home their very own hand-made chocolate lollipops, but most importantly, a dream of how they can go out into the world and change it for the better.
¡Hola!
I’m Lydia.
I’m a travel-loving Spanish teacher who’s passionate about teaching our children about sustainability and social justice.
I wanted to create something to spark wonder in our little people for some of the sweeter things in life; community, kindness and cacao! At Strong & Heard, we use chocolate as an engaging tool to teach children how to be kinder to our people and our planet.
Come and turn the pages of The Chocolate Story with us.
We can’t wait to spend time with you!
