Vous suciez votre pouce quand vous étiez petits. The translation is you used to suck your thumbs when you were small. Why is petit plural - unlikely to be talking to more than one person about this, and why 'votre pouce' when the translation is 'your thumbs' - wouldn't it be 'vos pouces'

Is ice cream plural in French?In the weekend A1 writing excersize it gave, "Leurs glaces sont excellentes !" as the answer for, "Their ice cream is excellent." I got it wrong, of course, because I used it as a singular like I would in English. But earlier in the dialog, they also used it singularly, so I'm not sure why or when it should be plural?
