A friend dropped by your door and handed you 4 choco candies in the presence of your 5 children. What will you do to satisfy all of the 5 without a grunt?

Perhaps your children are not of the same age? What was the candy like? Can it be divided into pieces?

He he he grandpa answered about division already that is why I am thinking some other way. So I though maybe one of the children can not eat the candy, perhaps he is still a baby. Peace nic! Have a nice day!

Cut each into 5 equal size bits and give each child 4 pieces.

Nice! I would've said the same. But you did it before. Good job!

Thank the friend for the gift but decline it. Children don't need to have candles.

This really is a tough question because generally the rule is if you don't have enough for everyone then don't come into the house. It has been that way since I was a little kid and it avoided alot of hardache. One cannot eat something in front of the others so I'd pass on the candy. When this friend left I'd opt to take the kids to the store and let them pick out their own candy as a treat. Fair is fair and we even go so far as being sure their is enough for the adults as well.
