I was a little disappointed when I saw that school was on for today! I love heading out in the morning with them for fun in the snow! Yesterday, I spent the day looking for activities a snow day. I stumbled upon the Ideal Sno-Marker Sno-Man Kit with Snowman Top Hat! I remember seeing snow markers in the past but I couldn’t remember where! I knew the Sno-Marker Sno-Man Kit wouldn’t get here in time and since I didn’t buy the markers when I saw them, I tried to get creative with what I had at home! I used a condiment container I bought a while ago at Bed, Bath, and Beyond. If you are almost finished with a yellow mustard container you can clean out and use that instead. Initially, I planned to use food coloring but realized that wasn’t a good idea unless I wanted the girls to stain their clothes. I decided to try crayola washable paint that we had in our art supply bin. I added warm water and some paint to the container and shook it up to mix it together. Since we only had one container, the girls could only choose one color (of course they chose purple). I’ll be headed out for more containers so we can add a little more color to our SNOW ART! It’s a quick and easy activity if you want a little time in the snow after school (while it’s still here) and you don’t have to hassle with all the gear if you don’t want to. *The water comes out a little quick, so it takes some time to adjust and create but the girls had fun adding color to the snow.*
