Set the stage with a note from the hot chocolate stand worker:

For a cozy treat,
We discovered something,
Not so sweet.
The cocoa was missing.
It all disappeared.
Who could have taken it?
A critter we feared.
Complete each challenge,
To receive a clue.
Read each one,
And find out who!
After the students complete each challenge, they will receive a clue from the culprit. A suspect will be eliminated after each challenge. Once all of the winter centers have been completed, they will have eliminated all but one suspect!

We homeschool and I really wanted to make this even more fun since we have limited space to work and hang things. So I got poster board and made a cute display on both sides. Lets just say it was a hit to say the least!!!

I added escape rooms to my kindergarten one day fun days this year so each month we have a new escape room and the kids love working through all of the different challenges to see who the suspect is. This one was really fun, searching for our hot cocoa content, and then ending with a hot cocoa party. Great ideas.
