Toys and Games Reviews of Be Amazing Insta-Snow Jar
Customer Review: Looks like real snow, feels sort of like it
Summary: 4 Stars
Ok, nothing wrong with the product, it is what it is. A powder that when wet, quickly absorbs water and expands into wet snow-like fluffy water soaked flakes. Get it, play with it, throw it away. Caution, it is kind of messy to clean up, and the instructions to dehydrate the stuff and re-use it, forget that part, you won't want to do that.
So, funny story. Not knowing how messy this stuff could be, and living in Phoenix AZ, thought it would be cool to make it look like it snowed outside Christimas morning. Found a site selling similar stuff in bulk, so ordered enought to make 75 Gallons of snow. It came in 3 quart-sized pouches. I got up early before the kids and with a 5-gallon bucket started mixing up the stuff 3-4 gallons at a time. I had to mix the concoction with a stick to get it to all absorb evenly.
I took the now 25 Lb bucket of "snow" and dumped it around the edges of the patio, in the planters, on the edge of the trampoline, around the walkway steps, you get the idea.
Wow! It did look like it snowed when they looked out the window, SUCCESS!!! And 5-10 minutes of excitement/joy of having a white christmas in PHX.
After the presents were open, breakfast had, now it's time to play outside. WHAT A MESS!!!
That stuff sticks really well to EVERYTHING, bike tires, shoes, and it brings anything it touches with it, gravel, sticks, rocks, dirt, etc, etc, etc.
I grabbed a shovel and scraped as much as I could into one pile, our of the way, hoping the stuff would just biodegrade and go away, but it rained a day or two later, washing the stuff from its nice pile to where ever it wanted to go. Remember the movie BLOB? Another few days later I grab the wheel barrow and shovel and rake and go after this stuff once and for all.
Anyway, hindsight, I wouldn't do that again LOL.
