This snow is naturally cold, making it the most realistic play snow we have made so far. It is fluffy and powdery and you only need 2-INGREDIENTS to make it, too!
Are you ready make MAGIC SNOW?
Magic Snow Recipe
- 2 cups of frozen baking soda
- Up to 1 cup of cold water (added slowly)
You will also need:
- Vinegar
- Squirt bottles
- A large bin or container
Optional additions:
Method
- Begin by pouring 2 cups of frozen baking soda into a large bowl or container.
- Then, slowly add cold water and mix, slowly adding more water and mixing until the desired consistency is reached.
- You can use more or less water to create different snow consistencies, but the idea is to use roughly 1 part water and 2 parts baking soda.
- As you mix the water into the baking soda the most amazing, fluffy play snow will form!
- This snow is super soft, yet mold-able.
- It makes the best snowballs! It is also naturally cold, which my kids thought was "the coolest" thing!
- Add snowman parts, and kids will have a blast building snowmen!
Extend the Fun
- Just when kids start to get bored give them squirt bottles of vinegar to make their snow "magically erupt!" So cool!
Now, is that "cool science" or what?
Rosie and Jewel were in awe, and I bet your kids will be, too! This ERUPTING Snow is just too fun! With or without the vinegar it makes a fabulous sensory snow!
