Making Pizza and Ice Cream

A great idea for your next summer party with friends is to do a homemade pizza / ice cream party. This fun idea is a great way to really get your kids interested in making their own food. Most kids love piza and ice cream, and this can make for a great way to combine both.

Homemade pizza doesn't mean you have to create it from scratch. Mama Marys wholewheat pizza crust is one company that has begun making premade crusts. There are also a number of different pizza sauces that are easily available in stores, usually found by the spaghetti sauces. This is where you can have some fun. Chop up bell peppers, onions, black olives, mushrooms, pepperoni, mozzarella cheese, pineapple, and anything else that sounds like it may be enjoyable and allow your kiddo’s to smother their pizza crusts with it. Depending on the amount of toppings they generally cook between 15 to 20 minutes.

You can make your own ice cream by using an electric ice cream maker or using an old fashioned turn crank ice cream maker The old fashioned crank can be enjoyable because everyone can take a turn making it. You can even add your own fun additions so everyone can customize their own flavor. Some fun additions include gummy bears, mint chocolate pieces, chocolate syrup, nuts, and caramel. The list doesn't stop there, it is only limited by your creativity.

This little party activity can help kids gain an interest in the food they eat and in how food is prepared. Children from kindergarten up can really get a kick out of doing this.
