we did this today. i filled a carrier bag with water, small dinosaurs, bugs and counting bears!
popped it in the ice compartment of the fridge (for an hour and half) out came about a 1 inch thick piece of ice. with the bugs etc sticking out
into the tought spot it went, outside. the children loved it
best bit of all was when i aksed one of the older lads (off to school in sept) what was happening he said " well, the water is warmer than the ice and is melting it" couldnt belive it!! was lovely.
in the ice box overnight is plastic cups of water and bugs etc. so they last a little longer.
thank you they loved it
