Snow Day!



What to do on a snow day? Snowy things! We finally got a nice snow here, good packing snow, so we could practice our snowman making skills. Gum drop eyes, oreo cookie smile, gummy santa nose, mints as his buttons, scarf and hat. I noticed we forgot to give the poor guy some arms. Whoops! We had a great time, she loves the snow! We lucked out and didn't get clobbered like most others around here. We maybe got 8 inches tops. It rained here too, making it seem like less. I'm not complaining, a big snowstorm around here is not fun! Small, old streets + 20 inches of snow + on street parking= not leaving the house for a week.

We also got to taste test some fresh falling from the sky snow! Mmmmm!


And lastly, I copied a project they were doing in her school and we made fluffy snowman, painted with a "snow" of shaving cream and glue! When it dries, it stays puffy and squishy, very cool! She loved this. Especially the glitter part. Why do kids love glitter?! And why do they need to use a gallon of it per project?!

Ta Da! The finished product. Our super happy, fluffy snowman!
