Snow Storm in a Jar

12/29/2016

 
Picture
Looking for a fun winter activity for your kids? This cool experiment is just what you're looking for! Click to learn more about how to make a snow storm in a jar!
What you’ll need:
  • A jar or similar container
  • Baby oil
  • White paint
  • Water
  • Iridescent glitter
  • Alka Seltzer
 
What to do
  1. Fill the jar ¾ of the way with baby oil.
  2. In a separate bowl, mix warm water with the white paint. Use enough water to fill the jar to the top.
  3. Pour the water/paint mixture into the jar. Add the glitter and wait for everything to settle at the bottom of the jar.
  4. Break an alka seltzer tablet into pieces. Drop a piece into the jar and watch the snowstorm! When the mixture starts to settle again, add more alka seltzer to keep the storm going.

​Tip from the website: baby oil, glitter, and alka seltzer can all be found at the dollar store!
