Ice Cream in a Bag
This is exact wording and information from
photography by Christina Stanley-Salerno
What you'll need:
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 cup milk or half & half
1/4 teaspoon vanilla
6 tablespoons rock salt
1 pint-size plastic food storage bag (e.g., Ziploc)
1 gallon-size plastic food storage bag
Ice cubes
How to make it:
Fill the large bag half full of ice, and add the rock salt. Seal the bag.
Put milk, vanilla, and sugar into the small bag, and seal it.
Place the small bag inside the large one, and seal it again carefully.
Shake until the mixture is ice cream, which takes about 5 minutes.
Wipe off the top of the small bag, then open it carefully. Enjoy!
Tips:
A 1/2 cup milk will make about 1 scoop of ice cream, so double the recipe if you want more. But don't increase the proportions more that that -- a large amount might be too big for kids to pick-up because the ice itself is heavy.
Save the shells you find on the beach this summer and make these adorable little seashell critters. This activity is a great way to test kids' creativity--have a seashell critter fashion show when you are all done!
What you'll need:
How to make it:
Arrange shells together to form different animals and creatures.
Have a parent glue them together with hot glue.
Add wiggle eyes to your creatures.
Tips:
It’s best to position the shells first and decide how you want them to go together before gluing.
Put cockle shells together to form oyster like creatures.
For more colorful projects, paint your shells before gluing together.
