Summer Math DIY Craft

Ice Cream Matching Set // Toddler Activities

By now I’m sure you’ve learned that I’m obsessed with my Cricut Maker. Did you know they can cut materials like felt, leather and even some woods?!? Pretty awesome right. So today’s project is inspired by both homeschool fun & the best summer month- July and it’s national ice cream month!

This fun ice cream matching game is perfect for tots and all the way to grade school. Add a few cups with plus, minus and such and you’ve got a full math equation.

Here’s what you need:

• Cricut Maker
• Pink Fabric Mat
• Fine point/bonded fabric knife
• Cricut Felt Sampler, Spring Rain
• Basic tool set
• Hot glue gun
• This Design Space File: https://design.cricut.com/landing/project-detail/5f1c7ab0f36aa7021c166d61

Here’s what you do:

• Turn on your Cricut Maker
• Open the provided Design Space file
• Place your first felt color down and follow the directions on your device.
• Continue to follow the Design Space cuts until all are complete
• There are a few extra sprinkles FYI

How to make the matching set:

Lay out your 10 cups, 10 ice cream scoops, sprinkles and numbers. Glue your numbers to the cups and sprinkles to the ice cream. That’s it! Let your little one find the number to the correct scoop.
