Soybean Crayon Gift SetIn celebration of our new partner, The Ocean Conservancy, Endangered Species Chocolate introduces Conservation, Coloring and Chocolate! The educational gift set comes with an eight-pack of soy crayons, a Sea Turtles coloring book, a three-pack of all-natural chocolate bars (smooth milk chocolate with almonds, smooth milk chocolate and dark chocolate with blueberries), and a bag of bite-sized milk chocolate Hoppy Treats (24 count).
The Sea Turtles coloring book includes educational information about the plight of sea turtles, translated in English and Spanish. Some of the information and images can be considered graphic, as sea turtles are endangered due to hunting and loss of habitat. The book also offers information about conservation. We recommend that parents review the book due to its vivid content.
Sample excerpts from the coloring book:
“After she [the mother turtle] is gone, poachers may follow this trail and steal her eggs, or a hungry animal may feast on them.”
“Their [the baby turtles] shells are soft and offer little protection. In some places, lizards, crabs, or seabirds catch the tiny turtles and eat them.”
“Sea turtles are disappearing. And once they are gone, they will be gone forever. One reason they are disappearing is because people use parts of turtles for food and to make different products.”
