Playlearn Snow, White

Product Information

Now it’s time to make the magic happen and slowly mix very cold water into the baking soda. Again, the colder your water is, the more realistic your “snow” will feel, but you can make the snow as warm as you want it and it will still be a good consistency for that perfect snowman or snowball fight! Although the shaving cream and corn starch snow did not quite win the coldness contest or clean-up test, it came as a close runner up in both areas. The overall texture and ability to play with this snow for hours wins my vote for the best way how to make instant snow without baking soda! We have searched the globe to find you the best erupting instant snow. Create a blizzard with this exciting powder that erupts into snow with water. No stirring. That's right, make artificial snow that looks and feels like the real thing! You wont be able to take your hands off the piles of fluffy, white flurry. The secret is in the superabsorbent polymer powder that expands up to 40 times its size with water. As used in movies and indoor skate parks. I also like to add a drop or two of food coloring to the vinegar. This will turn your snowman into whatever color you choose when you spray the vinegar onto it.

If you don’t need as much, cut the recipe in half and do 1/2 cup of shaving cream and 1/2 cup of white glue. One cup will give you enough for 2-3 kids to make snowmen with. If you only have 1 child, cut the recipe in half. This is the toughest category to rank the different methods that we tried because they all had a great snow-like texture in some form or another. This awesome snow dough is just two ingredients – well three if you like it sparkly – and so fun to play with that even my big kids were loving it!Add baking soda into a large mixing bowl. You can use as much or as little as you want, but I usually use about 3 or 4 cups. YES! Simply put the Insta Snow into the freezer and it acts even more like real snow. So, go ahead and make your own Frosty...indoors! While the one we made (pictured below) is quite small, you could make enough snow from just one bag to create a snowman that's 18" to 36" tall.

Carefully pull out the cotton padding in the diaper and shake out the tiny little polymer beads that are inside the diaper and put them into a bowl. If you want to make lots of snow, you can repeat this step with a few diapers.

Reagents

Now comes the fun part of playing in your freshly made snow! One of my favorite things to do is to of course make a snowball and then a snowman. The amount of water you add to the baking soda will also determine if you have a wet or powdery snow. Just like in the wonderful world of weather, the more water content that the snow has, the wetter and slushier it will be.

Finally, if you’d rather not make your own fake snow you can buy instant snow! Instant snow is great for sensory bins and kids love playing with it and watching it grow. You just need to add water! Dispose of solid waste together with household garbage. Pour solutions down the sink. Wash with an excess of water. Scientific description What is sodium polyacrylate? The area surrounding the experiment should be kept clear of any obstructions and away from the storage of food. It should be well lit and ventilated and close to a water supply. A solid table with a heat resistant top should be provided

Disposal

Believe it or not, snow can and does fall through the air when temperatures are as warm as 50°F! This is possible when you have a very shallow layer of above-freezing air at the surface, but the rest of the path of the snowflake high in the atmosphere remains below freezing. To refresh your snow if it looks a little tired and dry, simply squirt with a fine mist of water and fluff. It can be used outdoors. Mix your water into your baking soda mixture and freeze for 15 min for an icy sensory dough that feels like snow! If you want your snow to be really cold like real snow then keep it in the freezer a few hours before the experiment. If you are looking for warm and tropical feeling snow, then skip the freezer step. Add water to the Insta Snow Powder and you'll instantly have fluffy, fake snow. Expands 100 times its original size!

Now we’ll show you how to make an easy 2 ingredient puffy paint recipe. Use this “snow” paint to create your own snowman. Toddlers and preschoolers can make a melted snowman version by just painting the paper and adding their snowman face features. We added pine cones and small animals like a polar bear and deer to make our own Winter sensory bin. We added a little bit of glitter in as well. Use Insta Snow fake snow to decorate a tree, your miniature villages, or any area that could use a "light dusting" of snow.So, let your imagination run wild with all the cool things you can do with Insta Snow powder. Try putting a little in the bottom of a champagne glass (but don't drink it, of course!). Or put some in a friend's water glass and watch their amazement when they fill it up with water. When you are done playing with your diaper snow, you can dry it out and then use it again by adding water next time!
