5. Near the beginning of the Victorian era in 1843 the United States patent office issued patent number #3254 for the invention of the hand cranked churn. This wonderful invention is the predecessor of today's hand cranked ice cream makers. This invention was the product of the imagination of which Victorian lady?

6. Hand cranked ice cream churns made ice cream readily available in people's homes. Before the ice cream churn, ice cream was a luxury reserved for special occasions. Let's visit the Victorian street front and say "Ice cream churn".

In 1922 an Iowa schoolteacher named Christian Nelson did just that and created an ice cream sensation that swept the nation. What was this ice cream wonder called?

10. Choosing the right path to the next question could be difficult, let's visit the crossroads and see which path looks right. Maybe clicking on a castle turret will help us find the way.

11. In 1924 a man named Harry B. Burt created "the new clean convenient way to eat ice cream" by putting an Eskimo Pie on a stick. Burt called his invention the Frozen Sucker. This new ice cream invention became an instant hit and Burt created a company with a fleet of trucks to deliver the ice cream bars, what did Burt name his company?

12. After the Good Humor trucks were discontinued by the main company many of the drivers continued to deliver ice cream and some started their own ice cream truck businesses. Today ice cream trucks are a summer staple. Let's visit the colonial garden and say "Ice cream for sale"

16. Summertime calls for ice cream and.... Popsicles! Popsicles have as sweet a history as ice cream. Like many great inventions the idea of the Popsicle came completely by accident when Frank Epperson, then age 11, left a drink with a stir stick outside on a freezing California night. The next morning Frank discovered a tasty frozen treat on a stick which he recreated and later sold with great success. Let's go to a house with a porch and say "Frank, I need a Popsicle!"
