For our nutrition activity last month we did ice-cream in a bag. This is a great activity for science and uses some gross motor skills too. Not to mention it is very inexpensive for those on a class budget :)
Here are all of our ingredients: Ice Cubes; Ice Cream Salt; 1 cup half and half; 2 TB sugar; 1/2 tsp. vanilla
Add everything but the salt into a ziplock bag.
Then close it tightly and place it in another bag that is filled 1/4 way with ice cubes. Next sprinkle in the salt.
I didn't get a picture of the kids shaking the bag but here is the finished product!
