The Ultimate Guide to Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Giveaway

The Ultimate Guide to Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Valarie Budayr & Roscoe Welply is a fabulous enhanced eBook for children.  The 174 pages of this eBook is entertaining and educational.  The animations, games, recipes, videos are fun for children and parents.  This interactive eBook walks us through the famous children's story Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl, although this guide is not associated with Roald Dahl's book.
The activities in the guide give us the opportunity to stop, think, make crafts, cook, laugh and learn.  This engaging guide allows us to "jump" inside the pages.  There are over 20 crafts and activities such as creating Gobstopper Gum and Chocolate Rivers, handmade Willy Wonka hats and many more.  The illustrations in the guide bring wonder and amazement through Willy Wonka's world.  My children and I enjoyed the fun activities in this interactive eBook.  We thought it was easy to follow and understand as we enjoyed reading and learning.  We like the videos in the book as it helped us see the explained activities.  My children also enjoyed the special effects on some of the pages.

One of the activities in the guide was to decorate marshmallows with edible paint.  To decorate different faces in the marshmallows we will need...
marshmallows
edible paint or edible gel
straws, pasta, toothpick optional

Using edible paint decorate the marshmallows.  After making the faces, children can build towers or shapes with the marshmallows using straws, pasta or toothpicks.

Building with the marshmallows and toothpicks was lots of fun as we talked about 3D shapes, structure and about building.
With this interactive book we can have fun at our own pace and experience the story.  It is beautifully written and illustrated children's book that will allow children and adults to imagine as the ebook brings art, literature and technology together.  
This eBook is available on downloadable PDF, iBooks and iTunes.  We enjoyed reading this book on the iPad.
