Materials:
Knife, Plate,
Solid milk chocolate,
Chocolate covered candy bar,
Hollow chocolate

Duration:
Approximately 10 minutes
 

What you will do during class:
Ask a volunteer to come forward. Have them cut the solid milk chocolate bar several times to see what is inside.

Say: “This chocolate is pure solid chocolate all the way through like God is pure goodness all the way through.”

Have another volunteer to come forward. Have them cut the chocolate covered candy bar.

Say: “This chocolate covered candy bar is kind of like us. We have some of the chocolate goodness on us, but we are no where near pure goodness.”

Have another volunteer to come forward. Have them cut the hollow chocolate candy.

Say: “Again, this is not solid and pure goodness like God is pure goodness.” Many people may look good on the outside but be hollow when it really counts.

Cut up candy bars on plate and have a volunteer take chocolate around to share with classmates.

Melanie Rushing wrote with this suggestion:
After the talk, I gave the children 2 miniature chocolate bars and two notes. I told the kid's to give a chocolate bar and note to two seperate adults whom they believed to be pure through and through. The note explained why the adult had recieved the chocolate and then instructed them to search themselves to be sure that what that child believed was true. It was a humbling experience for many.
