Sounds like a good idea! I think I read somewhere about how to make home made cool packs by taking a sponge and soaking it in a mixture of alcohol and water then putting it in a zip-lock bag in the freezer. I don't know the alcohol/water proportions, but apparently the alcohol keeps the water from freezing completely so the whole thing stays somewhat soft and form-able like the ice packs you get from the hospital. It's one of those things, I've never tried it but I keep on meaning to.
