Making Ice Cream

Yesterday we enjoyed a beautiful sunny day at one of our favorite parks, Wildwood Park. But to make the fun even BETTER we hosting an ice cream making day with our homeschool group - it was fun!

This is such an easy and fun little project that can be done anywhere. You take a gallon ziploc bag and fill it about 1/4 full of ice and six tablespoons of ice cream rock salt. Then you take a quart size ziploc bag and fill it will 1 tablespoon sugar, 1/2 cup cream and 1/4 teaspoon of vanilla. Seal this ziploc bag really well and place it inside the gallon size bag of ice & salt. Seal the gallon bag up really well and start 'working' the bag - shake it, shimmy it, roll it and wiggle it. Shake all the ice cream makings around in that ice until it is frozen... about five to ten minutes. Then open and enjoy the ice cream ~ DELICIOUS!!!
