We are lucky enough to still have snow (that is sarcasm in my typing). My kids love to play in it put get tired of the wind and cold. So I scooped some up into pans for them to bring inside. We colored some water and used the droppers to color the snow. I also got out some little colored sticks that we had in our craft drawer. R made some snow trees and T ran and grabbed his tractors to "move the snow around". I can honestly say, they played longer with the snow inside than they every have played with it outside.
We still have lots of snow too :). I posted a link up for snow painting activities for those of us who are "blessed" with the white stuff for months out of the year! http://childcentralstation.blogspot.com/2011/03/let-me-count-ways-you-can-paint-snow.html
ReplyDeleteIt always amazes me how much the children enjoy the snow when you add color to it! (both inside and out!)
