Summer’s coming! It’s time to play outside, enjoy the warm weather, and cool off with a yummy snack! Here’s an ice cream tot pack to go along with your summertime fun.

I Can Do That! So Can You… posted a fun alternative to circling the picture that is different. In THIS POST, there’s a picture of how she cut out the pictures and used manipulatives with her tot to cover the picture that is different. I thought that was a neat idea!
We did an ice cream-themed week when Alex was 26 months old. Here are a few hands-on activities that might be fun along with the ice cream printables:
marble painting
rolling to see how many scoops to put on the cone
Don’t forget to enjoy a tasty snack, too! Try making some homemade ice cream, taking a trip to the ice cream shop, or even making ice cream cone cupcakes! YUM!
You can also find some fun ice cream themed activities at:
- Childcareland in the free printables section (Scroll down to find “Who Took The Ice Cream”, “Ice Cream Cone Missing Shape”, and “Ten Ice Cream Scoops”)
- Making Learning Fun (link will take you directly to the ice cream page)
- Mrs. B at Transformations blog has a neat, simple activity on her blog for ordering scoops of ice cream from her kids.
Here are a few books you might enjoy. We found these at our local library during our last ice cream themed week, and I’d recommend doing the same to save yourself a little money. Alex LOVES Isaac The Ice Cream Truck because it has lots of vehicles along with the ice cream theme. He also adores all things Curious George, so that was a perfect pick for us!
The third book is a non-fiction book that explains how ice cream is made. We live near a dairy farm, so I’m hoping we’ll be able to take a little trip to visit the cows and get some ice cream when we’re ready to do this Tot Pack!
HAVE FUN!
By the way, as I’m scheduling these posts in late March while waiting on baby#3’s arrival, I realized that I am posting THREE food units in a row. Uh…blame that on the pregnant belly, I guess! And space these tot packs out to one food theme per month before you all blame me for the extra pounds! ;)

Great Pack as always. Thank you for sharing it with us ;-)
Hi! I found you through Musings of Me, and I'm sure glad that I did! I'm a new follower!
How fun!! I might need to take a break from our LotW stuff so we can do ice cream again. That was our favorite sensory bucket too.
Thanks for sharing!!
This pack looks great, but I am VERY challenged with the program it takes you to. Would you mind emailing them to me? I just cannot figure it out.
Thanks, Virginia
