Is it snowing? If you are like us, it is not and it is an exceptionally warm and delightful winter. You can create your own ‘snow’ through this little art project using a few simple supplies and a little imagination:
You need:
- Shaving Cream
- Glue
- Paper
- Shredded white paper (I used some crinkled paper I had stashed from a Christmas gift. You can purchase shredded paper or run some paper through a shredder.)
- Paint brush or fingers
Let’s create!
Squirt on the shaving cream on your paper…
Squeeze on the glue…
Mix it all together…
…sprinkle on the shredded paper.
Then swirl and pat it with the brush or your fingers:
Finally, let it dry. We have had so much fun with this activity. Many of our creations have been very pretty!
We connected this activity to the book “Snow” by Cynthia Rylant:
Have fun creating ‘snow’ together!

Very cute project. You can also mix shaving cream and glue together to make puffy paint.
This is such a sweet wintery activity! I am including it in my favourites on It’s Playtime this week! Making puffy paint has been on our to-do list forever, so we must make some! Thank you
Many, many thanks to each and everyone who has taken the time to visit and comment on our snow art. I’ve been busy at work and time has been tight. We are still doing snow art and everyone is loving it!
