Snow had finally come this week and this was an exciting topic with the children, so I decided to use it in our project.

We recieved another letter from Teddy where he told us that he also had discovered the snow while vacationing in the forest. He had seen that the snow consists of tiny tiny snowflakes and we talked about this with the children and I asked the question what would happen to the snow if we brought it inside with us?

The answers I got was: "It would melt because it's too hot in here" "It would melt"

So we got some snow and watched for snowflakes. The children got to feel the snow in their hands and determend that it's cold and that their thesis was correct; the snow started to melt in their hands.

After this we created our own snowflakes. I had typed out snowflakes from clipart that they got to paint and then we put some glue on them and sprinkled glitter on our snowflakes. They are so beautiful in the windows!

Unfortunately the real snow didn't stick around very long, it melted just as fast as the snow inside...
