Ice Sculptures

Drawing inspiration from a display we saw outside the Maple Grove Community Center...


...the girls and I decided to make ice sculptures.


We learned about mixing colors, how water freezes ("see, the top is frozen, but if we jiggle it you can see bubbles underneath!"), and how salt will melt ice. They had fun learning!


Plus now we have some beautiful artwork shimmering in the sun outside our window. That was a fun project.
