Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups Baking soda
  • 1/2 cup Conditioner (any kind)

Optional Ingredients

  • Glitter For extra sparkle
  • Essential oils For a pleasant scent

Instructions
 

Mix the Base

  • In a mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of baking soda.
  • Gradually add 1/2 cup of conditioner to the baking soda.

Blend Together

  • Use a spoon to mix thoroughly, creating a snowy texture.
  • Adjust the consistency by adding more baking soda for a drier feel or more conditioner for a wetter feel.

Add Optional Ingredients

  • For a touch of sparkle, mix in some glitter.
  • If desired, add a few drops of essential oils for a lovely scent.

Play and Store

  • Enjoy your fake snow by molding, shaping, or spreading it out.
  • Store in an airtight container for future fun.

Notes

Texture Control: Change the ratio of baking soda to conditioner for desired texture; more baking soda yields a dry feel. Color it Up: Use colored glitter or add drops of food coloring. Scent Variations: Experiment with various essential oils. Use Alternatives: Hair gel or lotion can be used instead of conditioner for different texture.
