She brought it up while she was trying to take a nap with Doug and then talked about it a bunch more throughout the afternoon. When she did finally wake up from a late nap, I was ready for her.
We balled up white tissue paper and had a snowball fight with lots of yelling and running around. She talked and talked about the episode and kept asking if she could put the pretend snowballs in the freezer.
Instead, I put some ice in a metal mixing bowl. We played with the ice and held the cold metal bowl. It was a fun way to illustrate how it has to be cold for snow and ice. It also got some big laughs from Phee.
So, if you're looking for a way to have some winter fun to try and stave off some of this summer heat, have a summer snowball fight!
