Hi friends! Today’s summer themed kid craft is not only calorie free, mess-free and fun for all ages BUT it’s always – super simple and made with everyday supplies you probably have hiding in your cabinet right now! {hello inexpensive!!!}

With just some fun colored cupcake liners, glue and a little imagination – you too can make this simple Cupcake Liner Ice Cream craft with your child today!

So what are you waiting for? Grab your craft supplies and follow our step-by-step tutorial below. Don’t forget to show off your creations on your social media sites with #GTMCrafts. Happy celebrating and crafting away the summer, my friends!!

Supplies:

* Cupcake Liners
* Cardstock
* Glue Stick
* Scissors
* Red Buttons
optional – glitter glue, rhinestones, glitter etc

Directions:

* First determine if your child wants to make their “ice cream” in a cone OR a bowl {see picture for example}
* Now have children flatten three cupcake liners and glue them in a triangle formation, in the center of the cardstock.
* Once the cupcake liners are down, grab your other cardstock and trim out either an ice cream cone or bowl for the craft.
* To finish the Cupcake Liner Ice Cream craft, have children glue their cardstock piece {cone or bowl} underneath the glued-down cupcake liners. Now children can also add other embellishments to their ice cream {like scrapbook stickers, glitter, rhinestones and a cherry button on top} that they see fit to really make it their own. Then display proudly!

Another EASY summer themed kid craft is taking a paper plate and turning it into an Ice Cream Sundae! Simply cut a paper plate in half, glue some silver tissue paper to that and cut/staple some circles from cardstock for the ice cream!! Kids can go wild with the embellishments and parents don’t have to worry about the sticky mess!

And the fun doesn’t stop there! We also took a paper plate and turned it into a popsicle. Simply cut a paper plate to look like a popsicle {somewhat like a rectangle} glue some tissue paper on that and staple on the “stick” made from brown cardstock!
