Glitter Snow Dough

This Snow Dough recipe is hands down my favorite sensory bin activity! For starters-this snow dough recipe only takes 2 ingredients (3 if you want to add some sparkle). 
 
The other reason I love it is because it feels just like real snow! Kids can form it like real snow and build a beautiful snow scene including snowballs, igloos and snow people!
