The kids only last for a few minutes before coming in soaked and frozen only to ask "What can we do now?" Today I decided to break the cycle by bringing the snow inside!
We started by mixing water and food coloring. They chose purple and pink because it is almost Valentine's day
Then we used paintbrushes to add the colors to the snow.
The kids started making shapes out of the snow and so we decided to take out the cookie cutters and make snow cookies.
Ellie found my silicone cupcake holders and snow cupcakes were created.
We had a great time and it gave us an hour of giggling, enjoyment, inagination, and fun. Much better than whining and bordom. Maybe not a long or insightful blog post but with at least two more snow days in sight I hope it saves a few more Mom's from mornings of "What do we do now?"
Happy snow days!
