Make your own snow and ice crystals – Sometimes our winters don’t give us a lot of snow to play with, or it all melts away as the temperature starts rising. When you don’t have natural snow, try making your own! It’s a fun and easy project that will keep the kids engaged and entertained. Find the list of ingredients and instructions here.
