Making homemade snow is a fun and easy way to add a little bit of winter magic to your day, no matter what your weather is outside!
Making fake snow is great for sensory play. The cool and soft texture of the snow can be calming and soothing for children, especially if they’re feeling overwhelmed or stressed. Plus, it’s an excellent opportunity for them to use their imaginations and explore their creativity!
Rather be outside? You can use your homemade snow to create a winter wonderland in the backyard, create unique sculptures, or even use it for a snowball fight. The possibilities are endless!
