KSAT Kids Home Science: How you can make your own snow

Make your own White Christmas...no matter what the temperature is outside!

SAN ANTONIO – Living in South Texas means that the chances of a white Christmas are about as high as Santa passing on a cookie...

However, you don’t have to let Mother Nature stop you!

Meteorologist Kaiti Blake shows you how you can make your own snow at home - no matter what the temperature is outside!


You’ll need:

  • 1 cup of baking soda
  • 1 cup of shaving cream
  • some water
  • a bowl
  • a spoon or fork to mix with

Follow these steps:

1. Add the baking soda and shaving cream to the bowl

2. Begin mixing the baking soda and shaving cream together with a fork or spoon

3. Add a few drops of water as you’re mixing, keeping in mind that more water will make your snow more ‘clumpy’


When your snow is at the desired texture, you’re all set!
