Ice Cube Art
March 2, 2010
How about a project with ice cubes? Sound like fun? It is super simple. You just need:
- food coloring
- ice cube tray
- Popsicle sticks
Fill ice cube trays with water {not to the top though, leave a little room}. Add the colors you want. I was out of red so I could only make blues, greens, and yellow. Place a piece of saran wrap {or alum foil} over the tray and carefully poke your sticks into the water so they can stay standing while the water freezes. Let freeze overnight. Pop out {I left mine in my tray} and let your child paint away. The colors are really cool and it’s an easy cleanup!
That looks like a treat.
Hmmmm, looks fun! I’ll have to think about this though because you know I don’t like messes.
LOVE IT
Best for summer and outdoor art.
That looks fun!
How cool is that?!
How COOL are those!! My K’er would love to play with these….and would you believe that I actually have all the supplies…even some Neon food coloring. Thanks for sharing.
Cool! Like the bevel edges on your collage!
I really like this idea, will definitely give it a go. Thanks. xxx
That was a good idea I will do that with my kids.
You can also make pictures in the frozen ice,

Now that looks yummy!!!!
What a great idea. My girls would love this. I needed something else to do today….it’s raining and we need more art lately.
That is such an awesome idea Kristal! I’ll be saving it in my ‘things for Kyra’ folder for when she’s older. Thank you!
You’re welcome! Thank YOU for the great ideas!
