If you have subscribed to our newsletter, you know we have been crafting our way through the alphabet. So today we are doing craft projects that begin with letter I.
Ice Cream Scoops
Our first project is a favorite in most homes, ice cream. In this craft project, not only can your little artist design his or her own ice cream flavors, but can learn to count to the number five with five scoops.
Supplies:
- Copy of ice cream scoops and cone
- Bingo daubers
- Scissors
- Glue stick
Directions:
- Print copy of ice cream scoops and cone.
- Use bingo dauber to paint ice cream scoops.
- Cut out ice cream and glue to cone.
Now we go from ice cream to a place you could eat it in – an igloo. Your little artists can refine their small motor skills while building their own indoor igloos. If you are in a place with snow this time of year, you could go outside and build a real one, too!
