"I really enjoyed watching this video and can't wait to do it with my girls. My only issue that there is a lot of drag on the video. Great job and thanks for sharing...."

"This is a great craft for so many reasons. First of all, I love ice cream and pom poms! But for the kids, it's a matching game, and a chance to play make-believe ice cream shop. I'm looking at my yarn stash today to see what colors I have that look like ice cream colors. Then I get to make pom poms!"
