"I Scream, You Scream..." Ice Cream Cone Craft & Display
Ice cream is an excellent summer theme and, in preparation for their special visit from the 'ice cream man', the pre-k kiddos at All About Children childcare center crafted ice cream cones for a classroom display!
Materials
Ice cream cone template
Construction paper in assorted 'ice cream' colors
Scissors
Craft glue
Sprinkles
Assembling the Cone
Provide students with pre-traced ice cream cones, scoops of ice cream, and cherries to cut out {as the teachers at AAC did} or offer card stock templates for your crafters to trace onto construction paper and cut out.
Once all of their pieces are cut, invite them to use craft glue to assemble the cone!
As a finishing touch, provide students with a handful of sprinkles to add to the top scoop of ice cream. Have your kiddos apply a thin layer of glue to the scoop using a q-tip or add a number of small dots of glue to the cutout, then carefully drop the sprinkles onto the wet adhesive.
A few crafting notes...
- All Kids Network has a great ice cream cone template!
- For more variation in the cones, have students use construction paper to create scoops of their favorite ice cream... or invent new flavors!
Ice Cream Cone Display
If you have space, the ice cream cones make a cute wall or door display!
