Be sure to print Summer Coloring Pages to keep your creativity slowing!

Materials Needed: paper plate, cardstock paper, markers, scissors, glue stick
Step 1: First, gather your supplies! Print your free cutouts onto cardstock paper. You can print a boy, girl, or both! The boy comes with an extra beach ball cutout and the girl comes with a fun popsicle! Fold your paper plate in half and cut out the center circle.


Step 2: Next, fill in your paper plate. You can use markers and crayons, or you can have fun sponge painting. I decided to sponge paint with yellow paint. Then, cut out your craft pieces. Print Ice Cream Coloring Pages and a Fun Ice Cream Number Hunt to keep your learning fun all summer long!


Step 3: Color in your cutouts! Add any finishing touches you like. I decided to add a touch of glitter! Print a fun Summer Letter Search to keep your summer theme going!


Step 4: Woohoo! Your craft is finished. Be sure to hang your craft somewhere that needs a bit of fun summertime cheer!
