Start with a good quality ziploc. I prefer Ziploc Freezer Bags because they tend to hold up better with multiple uses. I double bag mine but I always make sure the plastic is smooth since I have weird ways about me and how things need to be. (lol)
Start with a Zip-loc bag (one that will seal very well) and fill it with one part rubbing alcohol and two parts water. The alcohol keeps it from freezing completely, so you end up with a bag of slushy ice cold goodness, which is perfect for placing around your joints or molding to your body.Feel free to add some blue food coloring in there and it will look just like the ice packs you buy or different colors to make it fun for the kids.
You can also make all different sizes, for all different size injuries. Small ones for your childs knee, or big ones for Daddy's back!
