It is really cold when....


Dad watched a YouTube video about taking boiling water outside, and throwing it up into the air and watching in form into powder. It only works when it is really cold outside.

At -26 today we thought we too would give it a try.

We boiled the kettle, had the kids get on hats, mittens, coats and boots, and gave each of them a mug.

They had so much fun making snow, we boiled the kettle a second time, so they could all try it some more.





Here is the steps if you want try it yourself.

Wait for -25C or lower
Boil the water in a kettle,
Take an empty mug outside, along with the kettle
pour the water into the mug
throw the water into the air
bring the camera to take pictures to prove it works
