Fun in the Cold

The thermometer hasn’t broken 20 degrees for the last several days. You don’t want to go outside for too long because you will freeze your honeybuns off!! I feel sorry for the kids who have to wait for the school bus.

However, we’ve used the cold temps to our advantage (Although my darling husband didn’t believe me it would work at first). We’ve made the kids believe we are so powerful we can control the weather….we can make snow.

 

MOOOOOOHAHAHAHAHA!

 

Seriously though, it is possible and it’s pretty fun to do. I’m not sure how cold it has to be to work, but we’ve done it at 12 and at 3 degrees. I think it just needs to be below freezing (One of my ‘Westsider’ compatriots will have to test this out and report back to me).

 

 

I put a brief explanation at the end of the clip but here’s a link to a detailed explanation written by an actual PhD Chemist (Hey, I should have asked my brother in law, he’s got a PhD in Chemistry!)
