How to Make a Snow Volcano: Fun Kids’ Activity on a Snow Day!

February 19, 2021      zynverwex@gmail.com      Leave a Comment

I had no idea how easy it was to make a snow volcano with the supplies I already have on hand! A gal on the Fun2Find Deals FB page shared a video of her kids making theirs and I decided we should go for it! It looked so fun!

The thing is, I’m not a “go big or go home” type of mom. I’m a “I need a simple and straight forward plan of action or it’s not going to happen” type of mom. When I saw my friend’s video I knew that this was something even we could pull off. Simple, easy, and fun. And I already had everything we’d need!

I appreciate when you use my links to purchase products (and I know you appreciate knowing it doesn’t cost you any extra!), and I also appreciate you hanging out and reading my blog! Also, find my deal page to see great deals HERE!

My first step was to double check that we had all the supplies on hand.

You’ll need:

  • A small cup or plastic bottle
  • Baking soda (just a couple spoonfuls)
  • Dish Soap (a squirt will do)
  • Vinegar
  • Food coloring (a few drops)
We just used some old plastic cups.

Next… Prepare your supplies!

You need 2-3 spoonfuls of Baking Soda and just a squirt of dish soap. I mixed our food coloring in with our vinegar so that it was all prepped and ready to go. I used gel food coloring because it’s all I had in the house and I put in wayyyyy too much. There were globs left over even after we made two volcanos so next time I’ll know we don’t need as much. A little goes a long way.

Have your kids take the cup out in the snow and build up the snow all around it. The higher the snow pile the more exciting your volcano will be! This was our first time so we just set the cup in the snow and scooped up snow all around. Try not to get the snow in the cup.

Once the snow is nicely packed around and you like the shape of your volcano, put the dish soap and baking soda into your cup and you’re ready to go! You can also put the food coloring in the cup with the baking soda if you didn’t mix it in your vinegar.

Last you pour in the vinegar and step back to watch your creation!

The twins loved pouring their vinegar in the cup and watching it foam over! They immediately asked to make another and thankfully we had plenty of supplies to do it again!

One Last Note…

Just a head’s up – food coloring can stain clothing/ hands /sidewalks and vinegar can kill grass. I didn’t take these things into consideration but hopefully our grass will be ok 🤣🤣. A quick bit of googling shows that it should only harm active, growing grass. But of course that’s the first thing my husband thought of when he came home and we told him about our experiment!

Thanks for Stopping By!

🎉 🎈 Ya'll! I just checked out from my most r 🎉 🎈 Ya'll! I just checked out from my most recent Stitch Fix and guess what?! They gave me $100 credit for first time subscribers! This is absolutely the best way to sign up! It's like 2 f r e e tops or a f r e e pair of jeans and maybe a top as well - depending on the price. Either way, f r e e clothes are just FUN!

If you already get a box, you could sign up your husband with his email!

I have mine set up to get a box every 3 months - but you can get them more frequently or only when you request one. I LOVED this box pictured and ended up keeping everything to get the 25% off (they give this discount if you keep everything), then on my last box I just kept 1 pair of jeans. 

Message me to get your $100 credit (we both get credit if you use my link) and feel free to tell your friends! This credit is only available for 48 hours! #stitchfix100 #stitchfix #stitchfixcredit #womensfashion #ladiesfashion #clothing #outfit
Nobody is wearing their Valentines shirts 🤷🏻 Nobody is wearing their Valentines shirts 🤷🏻‍♀️. No pic of all of them smiling at the same time 🤦🏼‍♀️. It was a stay home snow day and we all had a day date inside. But we had a really wonderful Valentine’s Day and hope you did, too. Also, if anyone is watching the Daytona 500 on your V-day I’m right there with you 😂🥰❤️

*Edited to add that my hubby did all sorts of sweet things for me today. I just think it’s funny the Daytona 500 was scheduled on what is supposed to be the most romantic day of the year.
Got the twins’ treat bags made for preschool!! C Got the twins’ treat bags made for preschool!! Can’t believe I’m a day ahead of time (now just watch me completely forget to take them or something like that 😬😬). Kinda wish I would have procrastinated though because now the favors are 50% off at Michaels and you can do curbside pickup! To shop what we grabbed head over to our Facebook page or shop our daily deals - both from the link in bio! #valentinesday #shopvalentines #preschool #treatbags #twinlife #momlife

Did y'all know I have worn a silicone ring most days since Baby A was born? My ring finger is a little bigger (still) than before I got pregnant with her, plus I don't want to scratch her, so I stick to silicone! I'm trying out these Enso Rings - and I want you to have a chance to try them, too!

Have you ever wondered what my office looks like?! Have you ever wondered what my office looks like?! Yesterday, this was it! We had to take a little snack break while out running errands and it just seemed so funny to me. I was posting deals from my phone in my minivan, holding a sleeping child. And my guess was that most of you would have never thought all of that was going on!

I work a lot from my phone, especially with a little one who needs held for a good portion of the day. If she’s awake I probably can’t get my to my computer much, so I am thankful for my little portable handheld computer/camera/word processor - also known as an iPhone. 

How many of you are working from home right now (either due to the state of the world or just because it’s your job)? Any fun work-from-home pics to share?! I’d love to see them!
