This was my very first Mommy DIY post last winter. A blast from the past- watch the video and start making snow memories today! I realize many of you already knew I was a crazy mom, but this video proves my craziness. I thought it would be fun to make this activity out in the elements- it was freezzzing! My adorable son, Michael helped make it so fun!
What is your favorite snow memory? Share with me in the comments.
If you don’t live near snow, you can still make snow ice cream- find a way to make or buy shaved ice- we have a snow cone maker that spits out the best fake snow! Be creative & have fun!
Snow Ice Cream:
- 1/2 cups half & half or whole milk
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/2 tsp. vanilla
- 4 cups of clean snow or shaved ice
Blend the milk, sugar and vanilla together until the sugar dissolves. Mix 4 cups of snow & stir until you get the same consistency of ice cream. Add toppings or chocolate syrup to make a Snowy Sundae!

Mom made this for us all the time when we were little…or at least, it seemed like she made it a lot. What great memories!

I love it! We just got several inches of snow last night and school is out today. One of the many reasons I love being a teacher! We will have to try this!

My sister Marki has a pic on her facebook page of her girls eating "yellow snow"…snow with a bit of apple juice poured on top – ha! I told her she needs to tell her girls not to eat it in the wild (-:

Love "snow cream!" We only get to make it once or twice a year. I use sweetened condensed milk and vanilla. And we always overeat!
