Can you have a Frozen party without snow????  Nope!  Even though it was a beautiful warm day out, like Olaf, we needed some cool snow to enjoy!  So HOW do you make your own snow???

moldable fake snow instructions

I tried about 4 different recipes before I was happy with one!  I have to say it’s easy and so freakin amazing!  For those of you whose kids have sensory issues like mine you will LOVE this!  Even my husband couldn’t stop playing with it!

It’s such a cool texture!  And it just get’s better.  We left back some of the cornstarch and shaving cream so we could add more of one or the other if we needed too.  It’s amazing how it’s powdery but cool, and still can be formed too!

It’s great by itself, but for an extra SHINE we added a ton of glittery iridescent flakes, although I don’t know that it really did anything, but the girls THOUGHT it did and they loved taking turns sprinkling it into the snow!

If you want to be able to form snowballs add a bit more shaving cream…  Princess was pretty thrilled with her Snowball!

and when it crumbles it’s pretty darn cool too!  Baby Boy couldn’t keep a ball for very long (but how precious are those cute hands???)

This is an activity we’ll be doing often!  the kids couldn’t get enough, we’ve done it a few times since the party, it’s great outside and easy to clean up!  Just let it dry and sweep it up, or shake it off!

    How long does the fake snow last? I was thinking of making some for my daughter’s Frozen themed party and wondered if I could make it the day before and bag it for the kids to play with.

      It doesn’t last long enough to make it the night before, My kid played with it for about 45 mins before quitting, and it was powdering up by that point, I just let the kids mix it up, so I didn’t have ot have it ready to go, it was part of the fun
