Maple Snow Candy


We’ve been reading the Little House on the Prairie series of books to coincide with the American history we’re learning in cycle 3 this year.  So, today, I decided we should try our hand at making maple snow candy like Ma & the girls.  Our second attempt worked, the boys loved it & it only took a few minutes to achieve success.  Plus, it was more chemistry in action! I’d say that’s a win!  

This recipe has lots of photographs, which made it easy for the boys to follow the candy’s progress — http://quakerfarm.com/sugarsnow.html

    Yummy! Thanks for sharing. We will definitely have to try this. That looks a lot better than what my kids are currently doing with the snow by bringing it in in cups and just easting it plain with a spoon. 🙂
