Coconut Oil Science & Another Bigger Tropical Traditions Giveaway!

Disclaimer: Tropical Traditions provided me with a free sample of this product to review, and I was under no obligation to review it if I so chose. Nor was I under any obligation to write a positive review or sponsor a product giveaway in return for the free product.  If you order by clicking on any of my links and have never ordered from Tropical Traditions in the past, you will receive a free book on Virgin Coconut Oil, and I will receive a discount coupon for referring you.

#homeschoolscience #win #giveaway

Our family loves coconut oil!  In fact, we just gave away 1 quart of organic coconut oil from Tropical Traditions on Monday!  We loved the quality of Tropical Traditions Gold Label Coconut Oil, it has a nice coconut scent but blends well into baked goods.  You can read more about my thoughts on their oil and two awesome ways to use it in the first giveaway post.  

If you didn't win that giveaway, I have great news:  Tropical Traditions is sponsoring another giveaway, this time for an entire gallon of their Gold Label Organic Virgin Coconut Oil! 

Now, this is primarily a homeschool blog and I don't plan on changing that anytime soon.  So for this giveaway, I want to share a wonderful activity you could do with your little ones if you win all that coconut oil!  

Coconut Oil/Olive Oil Observations

Coconut oil is so fun for young eyes to observe because it changes quickly based on the temperature.  Today we compared olive oil and coconut oil at room temperature, after being heated and after being in the freezer.  It was a great activity.  C was surprised that melted coconut oil is clear instead of white.  She documented her findings in her writing journal.

If you are new to coconut oil, here are some helpful links:

Our family uses coconut oil for everything from science experiments to ice cream topping, homemade bath and body products and baking!  I am so excited that one of you will win an entire gallon of Organic Gold Label Virgin Coconut Oil from Tropical Traditions.  Just imagine all the "Fairy Magic Ice Cream"(C's name for our homemade ice cream topping) you could make with all that coconut oil!

#giveaway #win

This giveaway is open to all Joy Focused Learning readers in the U.S. & Canada.  If you are from Canada please note: Tropical Traditions is not responsible for customs or duties that Canada may charge for your prize.  Enter using the widget below, good luck! :)
