Ice Wreath



The kids have always been fascinated with ice so we decided to make something icy while the weather was so cold...first we made some coloured water then we made that into ice cubes. Once the ice cubes were frozen we added them to some cold water in a pan and left it outside overnight. The result: an icy wreath!

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow



We've been eagerly searching the skies for signs of snow...and been sorely disappointed. So we decided to make our own snow! I was going to use shaving foam but we only had gel, so we made up some gloop and added a few floury snow drifts. Lots of different textures to explore...
