snowstorm in a jar

How to make a ONE LITTLE PROJECT

This snowstorm in a jar is such a fun winter science experiment! It’s really easy to put together and it looks so cool when it starts “snowing”!

Here's what you'll need:

Make sure the Alka Seltzer has citric acid and sodium bicarbonate in the ingredients since that’s what’s going to cause the chemical reaction in our experiment.
