Sundae Bar

Favorite ice cream  – Vanilla, Chocolate or  Cookies and Cream

Favorite toppings – nuts, gummy bears, sprinkles, strawberries, cherries, whip cream or whatever your family prefers. Put these items in separate bowls and your family can scoop as much as they want on their ice cream. This is a definite hit and I guarantee your family will love feeling like they are in their personalized ice cream parlor.

Snow Cones

Crush some ice in a blender.

Buy snow cone syrup at the store and pour onto the crushed ice.
