Homemade Ice Cream

I'm always looking for something fun to do with the kiddos. And if your kids are anything like mine, they LOVE ice cream. So when I came across this fun way to have the kids make their own ice cream, I knew we'd have to give it a try!




 It was a pretty fast and simple treat, that kept their interest the whole time.



You'll need: 

• 1 large Ziploc bag
• 1 small Ziploc bag
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1/2 cup cream
• 1/4 teaspoon vanilla
• 6 tablespoons rock salt (regular salt is OK if you can't find rock salt)
• Ice
Fill the large Ziploc bag halfway with ice and rock salt. In the small Ziploc bag, mix cream, sugar and vanilla. Place the small sealed bag into the larger bag and shake for 15 minutes. When finished, add toppings like cookie crumbs or M&Ms!






Needless to say, it was a big hit!  
Hope your munchkins will enjoy as much as we did!
