The little adventurer, from the UK, shows us the cardboard ice cream van that they made. Let’s take a look at it…

What did you do?

We created an ice cream van using two large boxes, taped together with a doorway at the back and cut out windows. We made a little menu of available ice creams! Inside the van we had a bucket of bubble gum gelli baff (this was our icecream) we used so plastic ice cream cones and scoop and had lots of messy fun serving ice creams!

Cardboard and gelli baff don’t mix well so if you want a longer play avoid using anything moist!

We had so much fun playing ice cream van though.

Tell the Housebound With Kids community a bit about yourself…

We are the little adventurer who’s 2 and his mummy who’s 34, we are in the UK! We love nature and being outdoors. Lockdown changed the way we play, so for now we enjoy playing together at home, creating wonderful memories! @the.little.adventurer.blog

How are you finding being housebound so far?

It’s been different, frustrating at times but mostly enjoying the time to just watch him grow!

Do you have any tips for other parents?

Let the little ones lead, play with their interests and you’ll both be filled with joy!
