Snow

Ian and Mac used an inclined plane to lift the snowman's middle section.

Snow activities from Hands-On Nature by Lingelbach and Purcell:

• Snow Melt - We collected snow in clear plastic cups and estimated the water level of the melted snow. 
• Make A Flake - We made six-sided paper snowflakes.
• Flakes Up Close - We collected falling snowflakes and looked at them with a magnifying glass.

The kids have also had fun sledding, making snow angels, shoveling snow, spraying snow with colored water, and intentionally getting the wagon stuck in the snow.
