The snow outside our home is so tempting. To stay outside and play is sometimes too cold. Today the temperature outside was -17c. Therefor ummi bring the snow inside for diha to play.

Snow experiment. This is hot water effect on snow.




Since the temperature is -17c outside, its like having a large deep freezer outside the house. Its so tempting to make ice cubes outside. 

Madiha is preparing the colorfull icecube to be freeze outside. 
   
Tada!! completely got freeze up outside!!

 
Now diha play picking them up with tong cause it's too cold to hold.

Then dissolved them in hot water.

Some diha use to design her snow mound.

It's is such a creative play with diha making her aware of the different kind of weather going on around here. 



Snowfall 2016

Unlike last year, snow is on schedule this year. We love snow but do feel the difficulty that comes with it at times. Serabut gak tgk snow ni sometimes. Ahaks.


First real snowfall starts at night the other day. That very night we went out shovel and play. The new snow is very  bright and brighten the night sky.

I bought pillsbury sugar cookies dough from walmart which is inexpensive cad2.99 only. and we use Madiha playdough molding set to mould the cookies into shapes. we have bear shape, giraffe, round triangle star and gingerbread man shape.




Tada!!!! large cookies. its taste soo good too.Then I make my own royal icing. Just icing sugar and milk and stir in untill I get the righy consistency.


Diha loves this part and licking the icing too.


Decorating the cookies was so much fun.After about 30 minutes the icing dries up andbecome glaze texture. 


Thats how much cookies we got on top of diha and me eating almost 10 cookies during baking time. 


One of those ideal days when we can do our baking frosting and lorating.
