Fun end of year activity

So this activity is not really English related, but I still bet your kids would LOVE to do it on one of the last hot days of school before summer!

Making ice cream out of coffee creamer!

All you need is:

Cup with lid
Individual coffe creamer
Salt
Ice
Water
Straw spoons

All you have to do is:

Fill the cup about halfway with ice
Put in a dash of salt
Put in a splash of water
Put the lid on (I put tape over the straw hole)
Shake, Shake, Shake for four minutes (Seriously, keep shaking)

After the four minutes are up, take the lid off of your coffee creamer and if you shook it enough you should have a small taste of ice cream!

How much would any kid love that? Heck, it tickled me and I am pretty old!

All I did was trace the print on the insulation board, cut it with a regular box cutter, and paint the edges of it with a Paint Sample that accented my walls. The last step was gluing the print to the insulation board. I liked this spray the best because I could reposition the print in case I didn't line it up just so. After I got ...
