How to Make a Snow Angel

If you've never made a snow angel, it's time to give it a try. This is winter fun at its best.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Spray Bottles
• Winter Outerwear For Everyone
• Food Coloring
• Cameras
• Film
• Cameras

1. Bundle all participants up in warm clothing, including hats and gloves.

2. Find an area of snow that is clean and has not been walked through.

3. Line up next to each other or spread out around the area.

4. Stand far enough apart so that when you spread your arms you can't touch the person next to you.

5. Fall gently into the snow onto your back.

6. Keep your entire body flat in the snow.

7. Brush your arms between your head and waist in a sweeping motion.

8. Move your legs apart as far as they will go and then together.

9. Repeat these motions (it's like doing a jumping jack while lying on your back) until you have made indentations in the snow.

10. Have someone stand at your feet and pull on your arms to help you up.

11. Get up without stepping on your snow angel or making a handprint in the middle of it.

Tips & Warnings

• This works best in snow that is powdery and not hard or wet.
• Put some colored water in a spray bottle and spray your angels different colors to make them stand out.
• Help children make their own snow angels. They will need help making the right motions and getting up.
• Take photos to preserve your art.

on 12/28/2007 I would never have thought to spray the angels with coloring. That's a great idea!
