How to build it

Step 1 is always free. Visual cards for the rest are part of the build pack.

  1. 1Step 1 of 5

    Use 6 small squares to make a big rectangle for your shop window frame. Two across the bottom, two up the sides, two across the top!

  2. 2Step 2 of 5

    Now take 2 equilateral triangles and put them upside down inside the window frame. These are your ice cream cones!

  3. 3Step 3 of 5

    Stack 2 more equilateral triangles on top of each cone – these are the scoops! What flavors will they be?

  4. 4Step 4 of 5

    Use the last 2 small squares to add some details, like a little door or a menu on the side.

  5. 5Step 5 of 5

    Place the 2 rectangles at the top of your shop window, maybe as a sign or an awning! What does your shop sell?
