Project {Snow Dough}


With all the snow we've been getting this winter, it's getting a little old. We've shoveled, dug and painted it. We've brought it inside and eaten it. How can we have some wintery fun without being cold?

{Snow Dough}

All you need are two ingredients:

*cornstarch (approximately 2 boxes)
*shaving cream


Empty the cornstarch and shaving cream into a big container and mix with your hands. 

This is definitely a job for big hands. Little hands just enjoy squishing the shaving cream and getting corn starch everywhere. It is fun, but if you want to end up with snow dough you need to get your hands in there too! 

Snow dough is a great consistency. The cornstarch makes it silky to the touch. It easily sticks together when squeezed. Lucas loved making rocks and boulders to put in his dump truck. It was fun to smash the rocks with the trucks or our hands. We also made snowmen. Next time we will add beans or small rocks for the snowmen before they get run over by the bulldozer.


We stored ours in the container we made it in, trucks and all! So far we are on day 3 and it is working out great!
