Winter Wednsday #2 Snow



The Challenge:
Snow Produces Water
  • Fill a measuring cup with fresh snow


  • and let it melt.



We guessed that 2 1/2 cups of snow would make:
Dadkins- 1/2 cup of water
Mommy- 3/4 cup of water
Jo Bean- 1 cup of water
Moca- 8 cups, oh wait umm 1 cup of water
Z train- half of 2 cups of water
Sugar Plum- free (3) cups of water




Mommy Won! Whoo Hoo!


  • See how many cups full of snow it takes to fill a measuring cup with the melted water.

We guessed 6 cups. It was seven.

  • Repeat the experiment with old snow and record any differences in your nature journal.
We didn't see any significant difference. However when we packed snow into the glass we got 1 cup water after it melted.

  1. Our snow is really wet like yours. I like how you had everyone give a guess ahead of time and then compared the results.

    Thank you for sharing your link.
