Hey! This is Ashley from Apples 4 Bookworms with a fun Ice Cream activities kids will love during the summer! I know here in Arizona it is HOT and we LOVE keeping cool with some yummy ice cream! The above craft is a scented ice cream craft. I found some ice cream scoop templates online and copied them on white, brown, and pink construction paper. Then, we drizzled a little bit of liquid glue on each scoop. Next we sprinkled some flavoring on each scoop:
Brown Scoop- Chocolate Pudding Powder
White Scoop- Vanilla Pudding Powder
Pink Scoop- Strawberry Jello Powder
We sprinkled off the excess powder into the trash can. Kids loved smelling their craft!
Where’s the Cherry Game:
This game we would hide the “cherry” (red pom) under an ice cream cone. We would move the cones around and they have to guess which cone it is under. Kids love it!

Ice Cream Scoop Relay Race:
I divided the kids up into 2 teams. Each team got one scoop. I had an assortment of “Ice Cream” (pom poms) I would give the first member of each team a scoop of ice cream. They would have to quickly walk it over to their awaiting bowl then hurry back to give the ice cream scoop to the next member of their team.
