You know that you’re bored being stuck at home all day, so imagine all the children that can’t go to school or go outside to a playground to play with their friends. However, San Francisco based chocolate start-up Oodaalolly found a fun way to help children pass the time and learn a little something about Filipino chocolate - their particular specialty.
They have released a twenty page "Fun Book" that kids can print out, color, and read to learn about "traveling cacao trees" and facts about the Philippine Tarsier, among other things. The company even encourages children to share their creations on social media using the #oodaalollysnap hashtag!
According to the company, the Oodaalolly kids' activity book is an educational resource that includes engaging activities for younger children - Pre-K to First Grade. Furthermore, Oodaalolly is a proudly Filipino-American company. So, this book is in English & Tagalog- solidifying ties to their Filipino roots.
“It’s a small thing,” says founder Hernan Lauber, “but small things are how big things happen.”

Happy Chocolate Trees in The Philippines
The story that opens the book explains why Philippine chocolate trees are the happiest - and therefore make the tastiest chocolate.
Bob Ross would be proud!
