For our Get The Scoop On Your New Teacher party, the girls and I made stacked ice cream cones for each primary class. We got a few colored pieces of paper and a cup from the cupboard. We traced circles and cut them out except the bottom. I free handed the bottom of the scoop so that no two scoops were identical. Then we wrote each child's name on the scoops and put them into their church classes. We also made cones and wrote their new teachers names on them.
I can't believe how cute and fun they turned out when I stacked them all up. And to top it off I made cherries for the top of the cones and put the name of each class on it.
At the party we let the kids find their names and put their class cones together. It also was a good way for each teacher to know which kids were now in their class, even the ones that couldn't make it.
The night before our activity I decided it needed a little something else. So I took the scraps from the cones and cut out WE ALL SCREAM FOR ICE CREAM. I think it just completed the ice cream wall and didn't take to much extra time.
As the kids were stacking their ice cream cones, they were giggling and fighting for the top scoop. It was a hit. It doubled as table then wall decorations and an activity for the kids to do.
