Shaving cream snow was a big hit a few weeks back, and today we created a mixture that looked and felt even more like the real thing – in the middle of a summer heat wave!

Little ones will enjoy helping measure out 1 and 1/2 cups baking soda and pouring it into a bin.

Aim to add about 1/4 cup shampoo (clear or white will work best), but honestly, I just let Travis have fun squeezing the shampoo in until we had a nice mix!

The mixture looks and feels surprisingly like the real thing – cool and fluffy!

It made for great scooping…

And adding into cups…

And even forming into snowballs! A novel way to play on a hot June day.
