THE ICE DRAGON:

I live in the land of SNOW.  It's January and we have no SNOW!  Global Weirding is on display in WISCO.

Can't take the kids iceskating, sledding, or snowboarding.  Nobody is riding snowmobiles or hitting the slopes.  Not a single snowman standing watch over the neighborhood.

What to do, What to do? 

Well, it's still Wisconsin, so we have plenty of one thing:  COLD!  

Here is our solution to cabin fever, the Ice Dragon.

Step 1 WHAT YOU NEED:

First, take a tour of your home.  What kind of bins and containers do you have.  We just started putting things together and seeing what we could make.  As it turns out, the toy room bins would work for a dragon body.  The closet gave us the bins for wings and the kitchen for just about everything else.

WE ALSO USED:

Ice cube trays
plastic cups
funnels
snowcone cups
Hefty oven pans
Tupperware
Food coloring
