Ice Cream Sundae

Why

Everyone will scream for ice cream after they design a classic sundae. Bright Crayola Color Wonder™ colors and creative kids are the perfect recipe for this pretend delight.

Steps

1. Choose your favorite Crayola® Color Wonder™ Fingerpaint colors. What colors will your pretend dish, ice cream, sauce, whipped cream, and cherry be? Paint Color Wonder paper with those colors.

2. Tear your painted papers into shapes for your sundae. Glue your imaginary Ice Cream Sundae on a contrasting sheet of construction paper with Crayola Glue Sticks.

Safety Guidelines

Adult supervision is required for any arts & crafts project. Observe children closely and intervene as necessary to prevent potential safety problems and ensure appropriate use of arts and crafts materials. Some craft items, particularly beads and buttons, are potential choking hazards for young children. Avoid use of such small parts with children younger than 3 years. Craft items such as scissors, push pins and chenille sticks may have sharp points or edges. Avoid use of materials with sharp points by children younger than 4 years. Read all manufacturers' safety warnings before using arts and craft supplies.

Interesting Info

The ice cream sundae was invented by a soda fountain merchant attempting to get around a law prohibiting the sale of ice cream sodas on Sunday. He took out the soda, added only the syrup, and changed the spelling to sundae out of respect for those who observe the Sabbath on that day.
