Ask your kids...they know the answer! During our unit on Inventors and Inventions Ms. Straume gave the kids a bit of a history lesson on the marshmallow. Ancient Egyptians used the roots of the marsh mallow plant mixed with honey as a remedy for sore throats (who knew?!)
Since you can't very well learn about the history and modern production of marshmallows without sampling at least one - we broke out the bags of marshmallows (sampled a few), paired them with their toothpick friends, and started building!
