🎨 Instructions Explained:
1.
Color the Shapes:

- For example:
- Color the cone brown or yellow.
- Color the scoops of ice cream in flavors like pink (strawberry), blue (blue raspberry), or vanilla (white/cream).
- Color the cherry red with a green stem.
- Add colors to sprinkles (rainbow or favorite colors).
2.
Cut Out the Shapes:
