Ice Blocks Galore!

Maybe it's all the recent sunshine we have had, as in Kohara the children can't get enough of making ice blocks. Perhaps they were inspired by Addison, Zora and Sophie?

Making ice blocks is a great way to learn about temperature and time (maths). We have found out that leaving our ice blocks overnight in the freezer is best as otherwise they do not set hard enough. We also get to observe the changes from a liquid to a solid, just like a scientist! The children have also enjoyed experimenting with a variety of flavours - tasting them is equally important!

Taste testers!




















Getting the mixture just right!




















Some lemon juice for extra flavour.

  1. How did the ice blocks taste ? Which flavour was the best do you think ? :) (Lucia’s mum)
