Ingredients
- 1 cup baking soda
- ½ cup cornstarch (optional)
- ½ cup warm water
- A mixing bowl
- A mixing spoon
- A baking sheet
- Cute embellishments for decoration (buttons, twine, or fabric scraps)
- Non-toxic paint (optional)
- A rolling pin (optional)
Instructions
- Begin by mixing the baking soda, cornstarch, and water in your mixing bowl.
- Stir gently with your spoon until it begins to form a paste.
- Place the bowl over medium heat on the stove and keep stirring slowly.
- Once it thickens into a ball, transfer it to a clean surface.
- When it’s cool enough to handle, knead the dough gently for about a minute.
- Start shaping the dough into three balls of varying sizes for your snowman’s body.
- Assemble your snowman by stacking the balls to create a sturdy base.
- Now comes the fun part—decorating!
- If desired, you can paint your snowman once it’s dried completely.
- Leave your snowman on the baking sheet to dry for 24 hours.
Notes
Ensure your snowman stays dry and safe from moisture to prolong its life. Store it in a cotton bag or gentle fabric-lined box.
