Step 2 Mix hair conditioner and baking soda in the bowl. You can use a spoon or spatula, but quite honestly, it’s a lot of fun to just mix with your hands!
Step 3 This is a chance for your preschooler to do some sensory exploration. They can try to create different things using their sensory snow. It packs together well, so you can create small snowmen!
