Wishing for some of that white powdery stuff this winter? No matter where you live, you can have a bit of snow for some fun sensory play…thanks to magic snow!
While shopping at a book store, I came across packets of Snow Wow. For less than $2 a packet, I picked up several as gifts for kids we know.
Of course, we had to try it out ourselves!
Just a couple tablespoons, mixed with cold water from our refrigerator (follow package directions for correct amount), made over 2 cups of fluffy snow!
It was amazing!
The boy is a little obsessed with the Titanic right now, and, as you can see in the picture above, his miniature Titanic had to experience the snow, too. Then the Hot Wheels came out to play.
As for the girl… Elsa and Anna from Frozen were soon walking in a winter wonderland. (Sorry, though, Anna and Elsa weren’t able to use it to build a snowman.)
And, lest you think this stuff is just for the little ones….
Grandma couldn’t keep her hands out of it!
Looking for a unique stocking stuffer idea, or just something to entertain the troops over break?
There are several brands of “magic snow” available. And while I couldn’t find the brand I bought on Amazon, they do have something that sounds just like it called Insta-Snow
(I’ve also heard that this is very similar to what they put inside disposable diapers…. So if you have a few spare on hand, you may want to rip open a few, add water, and see what happens.)
This was not a sponsored post… We just had so much fun with this stuff that I wanted to share it with all of you!
Have you ever played with magic snow? We are always looking for new ways to enjoy our sensory bins, I’d love to hear what you’ve done with it!

Thanks for reminding me that I have a box of this stuff I need to pull out!

Another fun project. It’s going to make great gifts too. I can’t think of any child who wouldn’t want this.
