Cherry on Top

Why

Dip into a pretend food project that's the cream of the crop when it comes to inspiring imaginations and learning.


Steps

1. Pick out "flavors" of ice cream and choose matching colors of Crayola® Color Wonder™ Fingerpaint for each flavor, plus the Cherry on Top. Mix paint colors to get just the right colors. Paint Color Wonder paper in each of these colors.

2. Tear out as many scoops of ice cream as you like. Glue them to construction paper with a Crayola® Glue Stick.

3. Tear out the cherry and glue it on top of your ice cream picture!
