Summer Snow

Let kids decorate homemade snow with syringes (you can get these free at pretty much any in-store pharmacy...just walk up and ask for them) and colored water.  It's a hit every time!

To make the snow, just put ice and water in your blender.  It takes a surprising amount of water to get the thick white slush...almost 50/50.  Then fill short cups with water and food coloring...they'll do the rest!  Be aware...they'll probably ask you to make them more than one bowl of snow :)  The project can last longer if you crush more ice and fill a cake pan instead of just one small bowl.  That also gives them more width to spread the colors over.

Enjoy and stay cool!
