Materials needed:
2 cups corn starch
1/2 cup baby oil (or vegetable oil)
2-4 tablespoons white or silver glitter (optional)
What to do:
To make the snow dough, simply mix the corn starch with the oil until all the powder is mixed in well. Add the glitter (if using). It should feel soft and damp, and stick together when molded.
Now you're ready to crunch the snow between your fingers for great sensory play and begin making shapes and other creations. Use props like small twigs, pipe cleaners, beads, bottle caps, ribbon, etc to decorate a snowman family!
Note: if making this with kids young enough that a risk of ingestion exists, use vegetable oil instead of the baby oil, just in case!
