Ice-Cream Popsicle Color Sorting Game

A very easy and fun activity for a preschooler...
All you need are
Some different colored pieces of felt
Pop sticks
Paints

Cut 2 pieces of each of your colored felt in Popsicle shape...
sew 2 pieces together, do not turn..

I smoothed down the rough edges of the sticks with sandpaper..
Than paint the sticks according to your felt colors..
And you are done... put the sticks in their corresponding colored felt ice cream..

Give your child to play with it :)
