So it's Minion #1 birthday at the weekend and we are having a 3 foot noise army round to celebrate. The theme as seems to be the fashion with the girly ones is frozen.
We have a few things organised already but one thing I thought would be cool was to have some fake snow. Now it looks like its going to be 26 degrees so something ice based is not going to work so I started looking at the powder type snow you can get. This often comes in test tubes around Christmas and makes a big bowl full. I was hoping to do some thing a bit grander.
Google tells me that this stuff is basically a superabsorbent polymer often (sodium polacrylate). A bit more searching and I have found this stuff linky I think with 4 bags of this I should be able to get enough to cover a tarp on the lawn...
£20 delivery though and I doubt they could get t to me for the weekend.. . ____________________ "no I didn't steal it that's just the way I ride" |

Kids are gonna be playing in it I really would trust something that advertises that it can be used in urinals. It'll be like filling a sandpit with sharp sand. ____________________ Well, you know what they say. If you want to save the world, you have to push a few old ladies down the stairs.

Have you considered ; https://www.maplin.co.uk/p/prosound-snow-machine-n07gh
Quite expensive and tiny but they'll be a bit more 'in awe', rather than plastic stuff... ____________________ The above comment isn't necessarily the truth and anyone that says it is, is only correct if it's the truth or they're bigger than me. |

BCF adverts at the bottom of the page pointed me at this:
