This Cold House

Build the ultimate snow fort from FamilyFun

This isn't your parents' house, so go ahead and paint the walls colorif you want. We filled spray bottles with food coloring and water (about 6 drops per bottle) and let the troops run wild. Thinking of a more precise look? If the surface is solid and smooth, try working with regular tempera paint and brushes.

SAFETY NOTE: As fun as they are, snow forts are also potentially dangerous. That's why our design does not include a roof or tunnels, both of which can collapse. Even in an open fort, however, doors and windows can cave in, snow walls can give way, tall snowmen can suddenly lose their heads, and so on. Parents should supervise fort builders and take precautions to avoid injury.
