End of Summer - Ice Cream {Kid Craft}

Welcome to today’s Paper Plate Ice Cream kid craft tutorial!

I know some of us don’t want to think about it – but summer is coming to an end and fall/Halloween crafts are going to be consuming us very shortly. {The trend is already starting on Pinterest!}

So before I start on my own crafting kick here on Glued To My Crafts, I want to share one more summer related craft with you all. Most importantly – a kid friendly one.

Today’s craft is calorie free, melt-less and fun for all ages! As always – my kid craft tutorials are super simple and made with everyday supplies. With a paper plate, tissue paper and glue – you too can make this End of Summer – Paper Plate Ice Cream Kid Craft with your child today!

Happy crafting, my friends! Don’t forget to share a few pictures of your child’s paper plate ice cream creations on our Facebook wall! #gluedtomycrafts
