The temperature dropped over 30 degrees today, and it rained all day, but it still wasn't cold enough for snow. Since James told me last week "When it snows, we can catch it in our hands, and we will build a snowman, and put it in his eye, and it will have a twinkle in it!", I thought a little pretend snow was in order...

To make your own pretend snow, mix 2 boxes of cornstarch and 1 can of shaving cream (the cheap white variety). It packs like snow (and only sticks to your hands during the mixing process, but washes off easily), then explodes like a snowball against the ground (or person...) when thrown. Idea not my own, but gathered from Pinterest (we were overdue for a Pinterest Kid Craft).
