stuff you need:
- empty metal can (no label)
- 4 tbsp of salt
- crushed ice
- paper towels
- Make sure the outside of the can is dry and fill it halfway with crushed ice
- Add 4 tablespoons of salt
- Mix and let stand
the ice and salt lower the temperature of the can's surface to below freezing point. The moisture in the air touches the outside of the can freezes, thereby forming frost.
FYI: Every snowflake has its own unique shape and is different that all other snowflakes.
All snowflakes have 6 different sides. To view snowflakes you will need black construction paper or fabric and a magnifying glass. Freeze your viewing surface by placing in your freezer or keeping it outside. If it is snowing, just hold your black surface out to catch a few flakes. Now view them with your magnifying glass.
Wear a scarf over your mouth and nose to avoid melting the flakes with your warm breath.
