By God’s grace last summer (in between family vacation, VBS, and Encore), we struck a balance of going on three planned outings during the week and making up the rest as we went along. I was also able to come up with a list of 9 different activities that we could do at home on a lazy or rainy day. The boys each got to pick one a month and loved it so much that I thought we’d do it again this summer. We ended up tapping into our list early this year and had a SnoCone Stand two days after school got out…haha!!!
First, I found recipes on Pinterest for making snocone syrup with no artificial flavors or dyes (it’s basically just fruit, water, and sugar) and made strawberry, blueberry, raspberry, cherry, mango, peach, and kiwi.
Then, I picked up a cheap snocone machine from Walmart, ordered some squeeze bottles and snocone cups/spoon straws from Amazon, and we were off to the races. The SnoCone Stand was a big hit, so I think we’ll do it again later in the summer.
