Summer Cup Cake Ideas & chore Charts

Ingredients and Supplies:

• 6 Prepared Cupcakes, unfrosted
• 1 Container White Frosting
• Sanding Sugars—red, yellow, blue
• 6 White Styrofoam Cups, 12 oz (you can find smaller ones here)
• 6 Plastic Spoons
• Scissors

• Directions:

  1. First, cut off a little more than half of the top of each cup. The bottoms will be used to hold the cupcakes so make sure the cupcakes fit inside with the cake tops being about even with the cup tops. Don’t put the cupcakes into the cups yet.
  2. Frost each cupcake with a thick layer of frosting and smooth it into a dome shape.
  3. Start with the blue sugar and sprinkle a thick coat on the left third of the frosting so it looks like a blue stripe. Use the yellow sugar next and sprinkle a thick coat on the middle of the cupcake to look like a yellow stripe. Use the red sugar last to sprinkle on a thick coat for a red stripe on the right third of the cupcake. It should resemble a snow cone.
  4. Set each cupcake down into a cup and dip a spoon down into the edge of the cake so it looks like a spoon inside a snow cone.
  5. Ready to serve.
  6. These are an easy, cute treat to make for any summer party. And they won’t melt!

Chore Charts

Chore charts are a must in our house because my daughter gets things done much more efficiently when she has a list to look at and check things off on rather than us just telling her what to do. Looking for the perfect chore chart for your family? These are six printable chore charts you want this summer.

This Electronics Checklist is too cool, and I love that it’s shaped like an iPad. This would really speak to kids who like to use electronics because it spells out what they need to do before they can play video and computer games for the day. This is a digital download and only $1.95.

Have specific chores that need to be done in each room? These Room-by-Room Chore Cards are just what you need. Each kid can get their own card or you can have a different card for each day. Get this digital download for $4.77.

I love the bright colors on this Summer Chore Chart, and kids will love all the fun summer-themed icons on the bottom. This digital download is only $2.95.

This Kid’s Chore Chart is really neat because you can personalize it with your child’s name and they can put stickers on the bottom when they finish their chores for the day. That gives them some extra motivation to get things done! Get this digital download for $3.50.

If your kids are into super heroes, they will LOVE this Super Hero Chore Chart! Kids get super hero buttons when they complete chores, which will totally motivate them. This digital download is $18.27.

And, this Summer Rules Chart is just like the list we give our daughter every day only it’s much nicer looking. This lays out everything your kids need to do before they can play with electronics and is only $4 for a digital download file.
