## About

A holiday-week make-and-take at Discovery Museum in Acton: children assemble their own mini snow globe with a sprinkle of 'snow' and their own decorations, and take it home the same day. It is an easy craft for preschoolers with a grown-up's help and a quick, satisfying project for older kids during the run-up to winter break. Drop in during the two-hour afternoon window; the activity is included with museum admission.
