Ice Cool Skaters
Find out how to make these ice cool skaters with The Let's Go Club. This fun activity for the holiday season encourages children to be creative and play with others.
- Tinfoil
- Large lolly stick
- Felt tip pens
- Teaspoon
- Plastic cup filled with a little bit of water
Instructions
Using felt tip pens, draw your character on a lolly stick - remember to leave a gap at the bottom so that it looks like your character is skating
Wrap tinfoil securely around the top of the cup of water
Use the handle of the teaspoon to pierce a hole in the top of the tinfoil
Place your lolly stick into the hole in the foil so that your character is standing upright in the cup
Grown-ups, you can now put your ice cool skater into the freezer overnight until the water is frozen solid聽
Once frozen, remove the ice cool skater from the cup, place it on a flat surface like a baking tray, and watch it dance!
Top Tips
Experiment with using different flat surfaces to see what makes the skaters move faster
Try racing your ice cool skaters against friends and family - you could design the skaters to look like everyone who's competing in the race!
