Here’s a cute idea for treats or for a child’s birthday party. The ice cream cones are teeny, tiny – about 1-.75″ tall (Joy Kids Cones from Walmart).
A cookie scoop or small melon baller is used to form the ice cream from the Rice Krispie mixture, then drizzled with melted almond bark or candy melts. To make the cones more stable, you can put some candy in the cone, then use the candy melts to “glue” the scoop to the cone. See tutorial at Cute As a Fox.

As soon as children start talking, they are full of questions and usually, adults are doing all the answering.
A fun idea to do with your children is to ask them questions as they grow. Starting at age 3, and then every year on their birthday, ask them the same 20 questions and see how their answers change over the years!
This would make a great video as a collection of the answers each year to see how they’ve grown and matured. You could also take photos and make a book with your favorite photos and their answers through the years.
20 Questions on Your Birthday:
1. What is your favorite color?
2. What is your favorite toy?
3. What is your favorite fruit?
4. What is your favorite television show?
5. What is your favorite thing to eat for lunch?
I love this Strawberry Pie recipe my mom makes. The filling is so good I could make a dessert of it poured over vanilla ice cream and topped with sliced strawberries.
Ingredients:
1 pie crust shell, baked (9 – 12 inch pie pan)
Filling:
Directions:
These simple candle centerpieces are easy to create for 4th of July or Memorial Day. Start with a small hurricane for individual one candle centerpieces or a large hurricane to hold several candles. Fill the hurricane with a single color or any combination of red, white or blue beads, sand, marbles or pebbles. Add a votive candle in white, red or blue in the center of a single hurricane or add several to a large hurrican. Embellish with white star beads or cutouts. Source: bhg
