❄️ Snowflake Oobleck Sensory Play ❄️
Snowflake-themed activities are perfect for exploring winter science with young kids! This hands-on oobleck experiment lets kids discover a substance that’s both a solid and a liquid.

Supplies:
• Cornstarch
• Water
• Glitter
• Cookie sheet
• Snowflake ornaments or buttons
• Kid tweezers (optional)

How to Make It:
1️⃣ Mix 1 cup cornstarch with ½ cup water (adjust as needed).
2️⃣ Add glitter for a snowy sparkle.
3️⃣ Pour onto a cookie sheet and add snowflake pieces.
4️⃣ Use tweezers for fine-motor practice and exploration.

Grow Salt Crystals for Winter Science
Explore chemistry with a hands-on, kid-friendly activity! Make paper snowflakes, soak them in a supersaturated salt solution, and watch crystals slowly form over a few days. Perfect for little hands and winter STEM fun!

Supplies:
• Table salt
• Hot water
• Paper & scissors
• Tray or dish
• Measuring cups & spoons
• Paper towels

How to Do It:
1️⃣ Cut out paper snowflakes (or use a printable template).
2️⃣ Dissolve as much salt as possible in hot water to make a supersaturated solution.
3️⃣ Place snowflakes on a tray and cover with the salt solution.
4️⃣ Set aside undisturbed and watch crystals grow over several days.

Science Tip: Crystals form as water evaporates, leaving behind sparkling salt structures—each unique!
Try this at home and watch your winter science creations sparkle in the sunlight!
