Hello! I have found this super easy project online for a pretend ice cream toy set: as soon as I will be at home again I would love to make it for my youngest. abeautifulmess.com/felt-ice-cream-sundae-toy-a-no-sew-diy/It's basically just brightly coloured felt balls and a few other bits to add as cream, sprinkles and chocolate sauce. One could also make the cones and cups, although here the author uses paper cups. |

Can you trust your children not to try to eat the "cherries"? I suspect that small felt pieces would not be very digestible and might even be a choke hazard as they would easily get stuck, not being smooth and shiny.
Apart from that it looks like great fun, though I'd rather have had a real ice cream when I was a child! Ice creams were a rare treat 70 0ddyears ago.

My grand-daughter would have loved this when she was younger! She was always playing with pretend food.

Yes, Ann, that is a good point, and in the article it is suggested not to make the small pieces for younger kids. Luckily, I can go for the full set, as my youngest is way past that phase. :-) |
