To create snow art, we taped bubble wrap to the table and squirted shaving cream on it. The children rubbed their fingers through it and spread the shaving cream over all the bubbles. (I saw one Bunny massage each individual bubble, but I can't remember who! hilarious) After they finished rubbing the bubbles, they rinsed off their hands.
Then they put a large piece of paper on the bubble wrap and gently rubbed to make a print. The last step was to sprinkle glitter on the "snow". Sofia's snow was glistening with glitter!
If you're brave enough to use glitter at home, here are a few tips. First, get a short box. We use the ones from warehouse stores that were once used to hold flats of canned goods or chips. If it isn't already, put the glitter into a shaker top bottle. I advise you to tape off about half the holes. You'll thank me later! Counsel your child to hold the bottle up high and shake. Once they are finished, you can recycle the glitter that accumulated in the box back into the bottle.
