This Grandma is always looking for great and easy recipes to make with grandchildren. On the internet, this Grandma found Ice Cream Bread, a combination of two favorites. See Taste of Home.
As always, Grandma can choose to make it many activities by making a list and going to the supermarket to buy the ingredients with the grandchild, researching on the internet, as well as making the recipe. We used to have encyclopedias for our children. Now all information is on the internet. We Grandmas can appear so wise. Here is long ago people began baking bread from Britannica Kids.
Prehistoric people probably began to bake bread about 10,000 years ago. Later, in ancient Mesopotamia, people used stones to grind grain, and then added water and cooked the mixture over a fire. Archaeologists have found bread in the remains of a village of Swiss lake dwellers who lived about 4,000 years ago.
You can buy aluminum foil disposable small loaf pans and have each grandchild pick his or her favorite ice cream and mix-ins and make their own ice cream bread:
