Kids have done that at camp. Would be a good party activity for the kids too.

I've never tried this before. Does it really work? Does it really look like ice cream?

[RobertaD]

It does work Tami and gives the arms a real work out too. Shake, shake, shake. Shake, shake, shake. Shake, shake, shake until your arms are numb then it is ready, LOL.

Any suggestion for choc. ice cream? Could we add choc. syrup or something?

Do you think this would be a good party activity? My GD is having a birthday party a week from Saturday. It will be outdoors and will include swimming, playing in the water, grilled food, and cake and ice cream.

Tami, I would think you could add a squirt of chocolate or strawberry syrup.

DeBora, I think the kids would have fun making their own ice cream.

I am seriously thinking about making this a party game with ice cream and birthday cake following.
