My son wants to make snow and I don't know if that is even possible. Anyone done it before, or know how?

if you open a couple of disposable diapers and empty the contents into a bowl and add water.....instant snow! you can buy the contents at a supply store but it's the same thing that they use in disposable diapers

Isn't that stuff crazy toxic? That would freak me out a little especially with little ones that would try and put it in their mouths.

Really??? I don't know if I would let my dck's play with that. Maybe because of where it originated? LOL~
The Instant Snow, that looks cool. Is it really the same thing as what is in diapers, because then I don't know. I hate that stuff when a diaper breaks...

Most grocery stores sell blocks of ice. Get something like a paint scrapper and you should be able to scrape some up quick.

That Instant Snow stuff is not what is in diapers
. It's comes as a powder and as you add water it expands and then you can "fluff" it and it becomes similar to the feeling of snow.

Where did you do it? In a bathtub? This sounds like a blast and my kids would love it!

I made it in a huge mixing bowl and then divided it for the kids on smaller containers.
If you go to my blog you can see a few pictures of it.
