How to Make Ice Boats

Printed from healthyfamilycookin.blogspot.com

MATERIALS:

Drinking Straws

Tape

Empty sour cream, yogurt, whipped cream, or any other plastic containers you have around the house.

Scissors

Construction paper

Hole Punch

Water

DIRECTIONS:

Fold the bottom of the drinking straw about 1/2" and tape to the bottom of an empty plastic container. Cut the straw to the desired length. Cut the construction paper into a sail shape for your boat and punch holes in the top and bottom of the sail. Slide the holes through the straw. Fill the container with water and freeze the boat until water has turned to ice (about 12-24 hours).

When ice is hard, remove from the container just before placing in the water. Enjoy watching the boats float on the water until they melt away...
