Seeing who goes the fastest, the farthest, and down the hill face first are always concepts in motion.

Just when you think you are the only educator who appreciates snow…WOW! This has been one of my favorite blog posts, we have made the balloons and began looking at our bootprints. We measured and looked for patterns. Thank you all for sharing! Such wonderful ideas!

Can’t wait to try freezing balloons. We did snow molds and shook the tree branches to make our own snow blizzard.

Oh Kimberly, These are FABULOUS ideas! We got six inches of fresh snow last night! We are headed out today to try this with ice cubes while our balloons are freezing! Thanks for sharing! Can’t wait to try this! LOVE IT! Diann

It was fun to see the snow stick to them and kids try to crack them open. We’ll have to next see how big they are with string, and then observe how long it will be before they melt and how much water is yielded.
Great exploration activities with snow play!
