Let’s shift gears and churn out some more ideas that will make your bike ride even sweeter!
Pedal Prep
- Tune-Up Time: Make sure everyone’s bikes are in good working order, tires pumped, and brakes adjusted.
- Map It Out: Plan a scenic route with fun stops along the way (a park, playground, or unique landmark). Highlight the ice cream shop as your grand finale!
- Flavor Predictions: As you ride, try to guess what everyone else will choose and what the new flavors might taste like.
Chill Out
- Taste Test: At the shop, have everyone take a small taste of each other’s new flavors for a taste test tournament. Who got the best one?
- Critically Important: Rate your new flavors for originality, deliciousness, and whether you’d order it again.
- Homemade Inspiration: Discuss any flavors that spark ideas for fun ice cream recipes to try making together at home.
Extra Sweet
- Bike Decorations: Add bells, baskets, or colorful streamers to your bikes for a festive feel.
- Hydration Station: Pack water bottles and snacks for a quick break at a park along the way to stay refreshed.
- Surprise Stop: Be on the lookout for fun things for the family to explore. Encourage the kids to be aware of their surroundings, not only for safety, but also for fun or interesting things so the family can make a spontaneous stop.
