I’ve got a great little activity today that the kids are sure to love. We played it at my daughters’ ice cream birthday party, but you don’t have to have a birthday to play! Today, I’m sharing this Pin the Cherry on the Ice Cream Cone activity which I originally shared over on my friend Mique’s site, 30 Handmade Days. It’s a great summer boredom buster to entertain a handful of kids, or just your own children playing with each other.
We all love the classic ‘pin the tail on the donkey’ and many other versions have come out since then. Well, in the printable attachment below, I’ve got a sheet full of cherries for you, as well as a 16×20 printed ice cream cone.
The ice cream cone image is a 16×20 in size, and I printed at Sams Club for about $7 (turn off the auto color correct), and then I printed the cherries as an 8×10, but you can also do that at home. I put my girls to work cutting them out (much too tedious for me!) and they loved being involved, too!
You’ll find a coordinating Banner and water bottle labels (shown above) over on the ice cream party post on my site, if you want more.
