Insta-Snow

Owen has been doing a science class since the fall and LOVES it. It looks forward to it all week. The great part is he gets take home science projects too. Today was Insta-Snow. AWESOME!!! Owen poured the water on to polymers that immediately expanded into snow-like substance. Owen and honestly I were both amazed. You then can sprinkle salt onto the snow and it will melt. You can also freeze it and will feel more like real crunchy snow. It was a really cool and fun experiment.

Afterwards we dumped all the snow on a sheet so Owen could play trucks
Then we poured salt on it...
And watched it melt. Owen was squeezing the water out.
Then Aiden woke from nap and discovered the fun of fake snow too.
