Unintentionally Hysterical

I was a bit surprised that our kids liked this (Make Your Own Snowman World Kit) as much as they did. Watching snowballs & ice cubes expand in water isn’t much fun, though, so let ‘em soak the night before. (3- hours and they’re marble-sized.) Follow the snow-making directions exactly and your kids will ooohh and aaahh just like mine. Our 5 (11-22) spent three hours making little wintry scenes, laughing hysterically. The small colored balls included for eyes and buttons run quite a bit leading to some truly funny snowmen. The directions say if one simply lets the stuff dry out it can be used again. However, after four weeks, our showballs and ice cubes were still rather large. We ended up throwing ours out and feeling smart for having ordered two kits. While I’m not sure the mfgs intended to make us laugh as much as we did, this product is totally worth the time, the very little $$, and the slight mess it makes, and is appropriate for summer and winter. (Fall and spring? You should go outside and play!)
