Warm up winter writing with our Printable January Hot Cocoa Secret Ingredient Writing Craftivity! This no-prep activity invites children to write step-by-step instructions for making hot cocoa and explain what secret ingredient makes their recipe the very best. Finished with an adorable hot cocoa mug craft topper, it blends creative writing with hands-on fun for cozy January learning.
Children complete two engaging writing pages—one focused on sequencing how to make hot cocoa and another explaining their special secret ingredient—then assemble the craft topper for a finished project that’s just as meaningful as it is display-worthy.
