Indoor Snow Play Activity

Indoor snow play

Are you looking for an engaging activity to keep your child occupied? Look no further! This hands-on activity is perfect for both little ones and big kids alike. Today it's cold and snowy outside, making it the perfect day to play in the snow. 

This activity was a hit with my daughter - it's fun and a bit messy! Just make sure to clear an area beforehand for this creative play. Here are the materials you'll need to get started:




To make your own play snow, you will need the following materials: cornstarch, shaving cream (a cheap bottle will suffice), glitter (optional), felt piece (if you want to build a snowman with a scarf), buttons, beads (light blue and white work well for snowflakes) and Christmas cookie cutters. If you want to add arms to your snowman, you'll also need a tree branch.

To make the play snow, mix cornstarch and shaving cream together until you achieve a soft and pliable consistency. You don't need to measure the exact amounts, just add enough shaving cream until the mixture feels soft and easy to shape. I used roughly half of both ingredients.
Once you've mixed everything together, your little one is ready to enjoy some hands-on fun!
