First you have your kids pick out the toys they want to put in the bins. We just used regular tupperware bins. Then they add water to the bins with the toys in them that they've picked to freeze. Then place them in the freezer and wait for the magic to happen!
Once the bins of water have completely frozen, take them out, and they will be a block of ice! It's actually easier than I thought it would be to get the block out.
You can use any types of tools you want to try to get the toys out of the frozen ice! Just make sure if you use power tools to supervise!
The kids loved "rescuing" their toys!
My kids loved this game so much that we have actually done it several times since our first try. The only thing I would say, is that it does take about 24 hours for the ice to freeze completely inside the bins. So if you are wanting to do this project, make sure you allot the time before hand! This is a great activity to do on a hot day because the ice will melt faster! The kids had a blast with this!
