Why not make the kids do the work? Or at least keep them busy out on the lawn while you get some real work done - have them throw the Play & Freeze around to make ice cream instead of using the ice cream maker you have to crank yourself or plug into the wall. Save energy and your sanity this summer!

So crazy! This is an ice cream maker. It's a great party trick. You put ice and rock salt in one end and ice cream mix in the other, shake, and go.

How cute is this!! I just love the color, and the idea is great. Just put in ice, salt and ice cream ingredients and after you toss the ball around for a while, you have ice cream. Keep the kids occupied and give them a treat--all in one!

These are great for camping
