What is an ice Pack ? An Ice pack is a bag of ice usually for swelling or injures. Most of the times ice packs are very expensive and you only use them onces a time so i have a easy and cheap way ypu can create yout own ice packs gor less than $5. I chose to make the ice pack out of the diaper gel because it seemed the easiest and i had all the supplies ready.
In order to make this ice pack you will need the following ingredients: a diaper, a cup, water, a bowl, food coloring or glitter, and a ziplog bags (26.8cm X 27.9cm) recommended. The first step i did was i opened the diaper and poured 3 cups of water. I let my diaper for a little time to let it get heavy. After i opened up the diaper and got all the gel and dummped it in a bowl. Next i got a cup of water i poured food coloring in the cup and alcohol. I then dumped my cup to my bowl and mixed my two items. After i mixed them well i dummped it to the ziplog bag and double bagged it just in case. Later i left it in the freezer till it got hard and felt like ice. I chose to do this ice pack because it seemed the easiest and i had all the supplies needed to make this ice pack.
My experience in making the ice pack was very fun i had fun opening the diaper and mixing things. I think it is important to know how to make an ice pack because incase of an emergency you are prepared. Like for example some one hurts there head by the time you go the store and come back there probably uncontious or dead. But if you knew how to make an ice pack which only takes about five minutes you'd be saving that persons live. I think it is importand for a reason the always have an ice pack at there homes just in case of any emergancy. You never know what can happened and when you may need one.
