June 7th. is National Chocolate Ice Cream Day the 20th. is Ice Cream Soda Day. It’s a great excuse to indulge in this frozen treat, not that anyone needs a reason to indulge!
If you or someone in your family has a June birthday why not celebrate it with an Old Fashioned Ice Cream Parlor themed party? If you don’t have a birthday coming up then invite friends over for an Old Fashioned Ice Cream Social! It’s a great way to kick off the summer! Friends and ice cream what more could anyone want! Here are some cute ideas to inspire you.

If you’re handy with a hammer you can build (or have someone build) an ice cream stand. If not set up your stand on a kitchen counter, or buffet table. You can always make your own banner to use as a backdrop.
