18 Dec Try at Home: DIY Snow
Tired of waiting for snow? Make your own at home!
What you will need
Large mixing bowl
Measuring cups
Baking soda (2-3 cups)
White hair conditioner (½ cup)
Add the conditioner into your bowl first, then slowly combine the baking soda until it matches the texture of your preference. If the “snow” is too wet, add more baking soda until you reach your desired consistency. If it’s too dry, add more conditioner.
The “snow” will last seven to ten days when stored in an air-tight container, but if it dries out, you can add more conditioner to extend the life of your “snow”.
You can add food coloring for variations or small toys for additional sensory play!
