I can't believe that during all this winter weather I forgot about this fun 
in the snow project.

Well, around here there is plenty of snow to enjoy. Just some yellow spots 
to compete with. lol

Fill empty dish soap bottles, spray bottles, or other types of plastic 
bottles with tops that allow one to squeeze or spray colored water.

You can use food coloring or poster paint to make colored water in your 
bottles. Don't forget how much cool aid stains. It will work great for this 
project.

Put your color in each bottle. Add water to fill the bottle. Make sure the 
water has a good bright color.

Now, dress the kids in warm clothing. But remember little ones might get the 
colored water on their clothes. So use old play jackets and gloves or watch 
carefully to make sure it doesn't become "War  of the sprays".

Now it's time to get out in the cleanest snow around and draw a master 
piece. It is a quick activity. The bottles empty quickly, but lots of fun 
and the art lasts until a new download of snow or that January thaw we are 
all waiting for.
