The winter season brings its own mix of fun. Snow falls and warm beverages come out more often! While residents may not be able to (or even want to!) go outside and play in the snow, you can still make an activity of the snow!

Host a fun competition to see who can build the best miniature snowman using fake snow. Simply mix together an 8:1 ratio of flour to oil (8 cups of flour to 1 cup of oil) to create moldable “snow” for residents to build their snowmen. Supply buttons and ribbons for residents to embellish their snowmen. A final touch is taking a picture of each snowmen and have all residents vote on the best contenders!

An alternative to the fake snow mi above is to use air dry clay by Crayola as an easy solution!
