Here in Australia, Christmas means sunshine, BBQs, and backyard fun! 🌞 So why not embrace the warm weather with a festive and refreshing activity for the kids? Christmas-themed ice painting is a perfect way to beat the heat while sparking creativity.
All you need are some Christmas-themed ice moulds—think candy canes, stockings, and gingerbread men. Freeze water in the moulds overnight, then hand the kids washable paints or food colouring. As they paint, the ice melts, creating a magical swirl of colours perfect for a summer’s day.
This activity is not just fun but also a sensory treat, combining cool textures and vibrant colours. Bonus: It’s a mess you can hose down outside, making clean-up a breeze!
So grab those icy creations, find a shady spot in the backyard, and let the kids enjoy some Christmas-themed fun in the Aussie sun. 🎄☀️
“Note:” For this activity, I used the Christmas-themed silicone moulds from Kmart.
