Digging for dinosaurs might be fun… but digging for chocolate? Even better!

We had some purely indulgent fun with this game, having talked a lot this week about digging for fossils and archaeology. I presented Travis with two chocolate chip cookies (one thin, one thick, for nice variation) and invited him to excavate the chocolate chips.

Possible tools include toothpicks, forks, or toddler-safe knives.

The fork turned out to be the fast favorite.

Although hands were a close second place!

Did we eat our discoveries? But of course.
