Honoring our Pioneer Heritage

For our activity tonight we honored the church's pioneer heritage. The girls started with a rousing game of Blind Man's Bluff. This was a popular game with the pioneer children. One person is blindfolded. The goal for this person is to catch one of the other players and correctly guess who they are. The goal of the other players is to get as close to the blindfolded person as possible without getting caught. The girls had a blast playing this.
After playing this game we were all hungry so we made homemade ice cream. This recipe allowed the girls to use basic ingredients that you would generally find in your kitchen to make their own person serving of ice cream. The recipe is included below:

Homemade Ice Cream
1 Sandwich resealable bag
2 Tbsp of strawberry Nesquick, OR 1 tsp. vanilla, OR 2 Tbsp. Chocolate Syrup
1 Tbsp. sugar (1 1/2 Tbsp for vanilla).
1/2 c. milk (whole)
1 gallon size bag
4-5 handfuls ice
1/4 c. salt

Place ice and salt in gallon bag.

Put the flavor of choice (strawberry, vanilla, or chocolate), sugar, and milk in sandwich bag. Seal the bag trying to get most of the air out. Place bag in gallon bag and seal.

Place the bags on counter and turn bag repeatedly until mixture is firm. Serve in bowl. However you like your ice cream, hard or soft.

Here are pictures of the girls playing the game:
