Winters can be beautiful times in the forests, scary time for drivers, and fun times for children. One of the classic things that children still continue to love to play is a snowball fight. Hiding behind bushes, trees, and other objects, children team up, and try to hit each other with as many snowballs as they can. To add a little bit more to the simple fun, there are a lot of different snowballs that can be created.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Snow
  • Jelly
  • Mud
  1. Step 1

    Ice Ball: Snowballs are usually painless and fluffy, but with a little more pressure put into the snow, they can become harder, and known as the Ice Ball. Ice Balls should not be thrown at the face because they can cause damage, but if a person is wearing enough padding, the body will be fine.

  2. Step 2

    Snow-Mud Balls: Digging your hand down deep, mix a little soil into the snow, to create a Snow-Mud ball. The brown and white mixture cannot be missed when it is flying through the air, and will stain any light colored coat. Mothers will hate these snowballs because of the effort that it will take to clean them.

  3. Step 3

    Thorn-Balls: Adding a little something in the center of a snowball will really surprise opponents and help you in the long run. One of the best things to add is a branch of prickers. Hidden inside of the snowball, the thorns will attach to the victim as the snowball lands, and as they are occupied in trying to remove them from their coat, you can connect with several more snowballs.

  4. Step 4

    Urine Balls: These next snowballs may be the nastiest, dirtiest snowballs, and the grossest part is the time that a person takes to create one. Take a Ziploc bag, put a fresh snowball in it, and when the time comes to pee, simply go right into the bag and place in your freezer. By the next snowball fight, the snowball will be ready, and the victim that gets it, will probably immediately quit the game.

  5. Step 5

    Jelly-Filled: Like the Thorn-Ball, but more explosive, the Jelly-Filled snowball, can actually be filled with any thick liquid. Like the Urine Balls these need to be pre-made and the choice of filling can vary. Mustard, Ketchup, Jelly, A1 Sauce, and almost any other condiment can fill the middle of a snowball and used as an impressive exploding effect on your victim. They can also be tasty treats too, for after the snowball fights.
