Puffy Paint Ice Cream Cone Craft for Kids

I don’t know about you guys but here in Arizona the temperatures are just disgusting! 100+ degrees everyday! I thought we’d make our favorite treat with shaving cream art. We made some awesome puffy paint ice cream cones :) They turned out really cute and of course we made our favorite kind – MINT CHOCOLATE CHIP ICE CREAM! Depending on your kids you can make whatever flavor you want though!

Materials Needed:

• Green, red, and brown paint
• Elmer’s Glue
• Barbasol shaving cream
• White cardstock paper
• Cardboard
• Scissors
• Marker
• Paintbrush

Pin

Start by mixing the elmer’s glue with the shaving cream until you get “stiff peaks” in the mixture.

Add some green paint or food coloring to the puffy paint. Cut out a triangle cone with cardboard and draw lines with a marker. (I used an Amazon delivery box I had laying around)

Pin

Using a paintbrush, paint an ice cream cone shape on top of the cone. Take a tiny paintbrush/brown paint and add little chocolate chips!

Add some red cherries at the top if you want! Let it dry overnight and it’ll be puffy to touch.

Watch my son make it…
