Snow Days

Monday and Tuesday we didn't have school. So, what to do? The girls, of course, played in the snow. The total time outside being less than it took to get them ready. We didn't have enough snow to make a snowman outside, so we made little men inside. A few years ago I learned that if you wet (lick them or place them on a damp towel) packing peanuts they stick together and you can create your own sculptures. They don't really look too much like snowmen, but it was fun anyway and now you know what to do with packing peanuts.

very clever! we need that too because as much as they want to play outside, it's just too cold.
