It’s summertime! That means two things at our house… LOTS of Playdates, Parties…and LOTS of Popsicles.
My son loves Ninja Turtles, so we planned a fun activity for him and his friends and his TMNT Playdate Party!
Of course our Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle playdate had to have a fun activity and a treat!
Our Activity: Turtle Shell Hunt and Sorting
I took shell shaped noodles and dyed them the color of the Ninja Turtles. You can do this the night before or even let older kids help.
Here’s how we dyed the shells:
Take 4 gallon sized bags. Add a handful or two of shells to each gallon bag.
In each bag add 2 T. White Vinegar and 5-7 drops food coloring (green, purple, orange, and red for the Ninja Turtles)
Close the bag tightly, and gently move the noodles around in the coloring and vinegar until each noodle is coated.
After they are coated, pour them onto a cookie sheet. I like to place them in the oven on warm until they dry completely.
Now they are ready for the hunting and sorting!
For our treat, we found these Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Popsicle Brand popsicles at Target. Right now you can get two boxes for $7. That’s awesome. We buy a ton to have on hand for all the friends and summer gatherings. So be sure to add these to your Target list!
They come in:
Orange Fury (Michelangelo)
Cherry Crush (Raphael)
Blue Raspberry Blast (Leonardo)
& Smashing Grape (Donatello)
The kids loved choosing their favorite Ninja Turtle color!Turtle Shell Hunt:
I sprinkled the shells around in our grass. Since it’s summer time we loved to be outside and it wasn’t too hot because they got together in the morning!
They all set off to find and gather as many shells as they could. The kids love this shell hunt!Turtle Shell Sorting:
After the kids found the shells, we went back inside and sorted the shells onto the coordinating turtle. It was fun to see which “turtle” they found the most of!
