this is for those hot summer days!  i did this when we were out camping.
Zelda (MSRIP) loved it!
 
i took a zip-loc bag and put a few icecubes in it.  then some water.  DO NOT
fill all the way up!   remove all air.  place in bed and cover with towel.
 
ooooooooooo aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh!!  she didn't even pant after that.  she would
roll over and change positions.  COOL!!
