If you followed Grace's strategy for eating an ice cream you would always have messy shoes. They had ice cream at holiday care on Friday and Grace came home filthy – the front of her dress, and even her shoes were covered in ice cream. Now we know why.

Grace was having an ice cream for dessert and the first thing she does is to start biting the bottom of the cone off, which resulted in frenzied parents stopping her before things got messy again. It does seem that with the bottom of the cone on, things are not quite so messy….at least it is just her face that needs cleaning then.
