We all scream for ice cream

Megan & Andrew's primary earned an ice cream social for bringing their scriptures to church. They had this cute little board that was shaped like an ice cream cone with 3 scoops of ice cream. If you had your scriptures you got to place a dot sticker on the ice cream part. Once all the white was covered the kids earned their reward.

Both of my kids were super excited to go yesterday after school. Once they got off the bus we quickly got ourselves together and headed out. There were kids everywhere and all were enjoying their treat. They had the traditional chocolate and vanilla with a variety of toppings. By the time we got up to getting ours there was only vanilla left. My kids were a little sad about that but took the vanilla and got all their favorite toppings.

There wasn't very much room as they were all packed in but they did have fun. They got to play a little pirate type candy land game at the end. As they landed on different squares there was a church related question, song, or pictures to answer. Once at the end they got to the treasure where they learned the next reward is going to be a pizza party. I love the incentive for them to make sure to bring their scriptures. I know it really has an effect on Megan and we are working on Andrew. I think after the ice cream he might start to be interested. It was good times and I'm glad that we were able to go.
