World Piece

We just finished up our second week of school this year. So far, we are really enjoying My Fathers World curriculum. They have many projects that we have been having fun with. The latest project was a cake with a map of the world on it.


We  decided on a rectangle cake with the 'flat' map of the world. First we frosted the enitre cake with blue frosting to represent the oceans.  We used a toothpick to rough in the continents and then filled them in with green frosting.


 



 


After we had all the continents filled in we used colored sugar to mark out the elevations.



 


We were quite pleased with our results:




 


And the folks in our Bible study seemed pleased to eat it . We told them they couldn't have their piece until they had identified the country/ies on it. (they didn't do very well. public school educations you know...)


Fun and delicious learning for the whole family!


Blessings.
