Kid’s games with ice = easy, economical, and most of all, FUN! Let the kid’s enjoy both summer and winter with these 5 fun and creative ice cube games and ideas for kids.

1. Excavating Toys From Ice

This is an simple and entertaining game, especially for a hot day. Simply place plastic toys in a bowl or container and then freeze.  After frozen, give the kiddos plastic or wooden tools to dig their toys out! The ice will slowly melt making them easier and easier to excavate.
