Last week we imagined it was snowing in the classroom. I took one toilet paper roll (yes, all of that is from just one roll) and separated all of the sheets. It takes about 5-10 minutes to separate all of the sheets, but it was extremely simple to do. Don't expect to be able to keep it afterwards, because it will be crumpled, crinkled, and much of it will have to be thrown out right away when the children inevitably lick it or wipe their little noses with it. :) And while it looks like a lot, clean up was super quick. The kids enjoyed helping to put it in the trash can, and the broom worked great to make a big pile we could just transfer right to the trash. Either way, it is extremely worth it. The kids had a fantastic time throwing the "snow" up in the air and trying to catch it...
And then they started getting the cars to drive through the snow...
And stuffing their shirts to see how much they could fit...
And filling up the dump-trucks and bulldozers.
We had so much fun with it, that we did it again the next day. This time, I provided cups and they all happily stuffed them, hoping to be the one to get the most pieces of snow in the cup.
