Playing with ice is a favorite activity at our house. You can see several more ice play ideas at these links…
I let my son choose some new molds for ice play (I showed him pictures and he chose the ones he wanted). He picked people and frogs. I love the people because they actually have different emotions, which made for a fun opportunity to talk about emotional intelligence.

| He counted the people and found the corresponding number. |
 |
| I asked him how many blue blocks he lined up. He didn't say a word, just got the #5 and put it next to them. |

 |
| "Look, Mommy. I made a frog castle. This is the frog who lives here." |
 |
| "Red, blue, red, blue, red blue...... I made a pattern." |
 |
| "It's a bridge for the people to cross on their way down the path to the frog castle." |
