Kids Activities With Ice

Ice is fun for kids to play with and is suited for many ages. You can even let your kids paint ice or use ice in a sensory bin.

Ice is great for sensory play for kids and can be used in many different ways.

Ice painting

This is such an interesting and easy activity. You freeze a block of ice and let your kids paint it.

Ice transfer sensory bin

Focus. Let’s transfer some ice!

Ice is fun to play with for kids and it's something everyone has in the house. This activity is great for the summer or warmer weather because one bin is filled with water and the other bin is filled with ice. You fill the bins and kids use tools to transfer the ice into the water.

Ice sensory bin

Ice Ice baby! Ice is interesting for kids to transfer and in this activity they will do just that - use tongs or laddles to transport ice from water to another bin.

Sensory bins are sure to keep my kids busy for a while so that I can get a short break. This ice and water sensory bin is so easy to setup and doesn't require too many supplies. You just need to make sure you have ice in the freezer. Add the ice and water to a bin inside a bigger bin, add utensils and bowls and invite your kids to play. This activity is great for warmer weather but can be done indoor as well.
