About it

Chocolates are delicious. They are made out of chocolate and sugar. Chocolates often have other things, like nuts, raisins, and biscuits. There are many shapes and sizes of chocolates, and many flavours too.

Do it step-by-step

To design is to make something new, just as we want it to be. We design step-by-step. The first step is to LEARN. We want to know more about the thing that we are designing. So, we learn about it. The next step is to DRAW. We draw it just as we want it to be. Drawing is designing. The last step is to MAKE. We make it just as we want it to be. When it is made, we can finally see it!
