On long hot summer days, nothing says childhood joy like a big scoop of ice cream! Frosty Friend Ice Cream Maker allows kids the chance to express their creativity by making their own cold treats. Kids can simply add their ingredients and turn the crank for some quick

The Concept
My concept is to create an ice cream maker for kids that is simple for a child to use and doesn't require any electronics. I also want the ice cream making process to be quick and allow for limited parental supervision.
Research
A hand-cranked ice cream churner consists of a metal canister for the ice cream mixture and a bucket filled with ice and salt. You prepare your ice cream base, pour it into the canister, and then turn the hand crank. This stirs the mixture, incorporating air and preventing large ice crystals, while the ice and salt chill the canister, gradually freezing the mixture into ice cream. After about 20-30 minutes of cranking, you’ll have a smooth, creamy treat!
