Bring Frosty and Friends Indoors, No Cold Required

For those of us who haven’t seen cold white stuff in a while, this Make Your Own Snowman World Kit has all the trappings of a winter wonderland — minus the winter, that is.

Featuring three different types of fake snow — all different polymers that activate when you add water to them — the kit lets you mix and mold wintry creations ranging from snow people to snow forts, all without letting the house fall below room temperature. It may not be quite the white Christmas you imagined, but it’s a step above dreaming.

Recommended for ages 3 and up (with adult supervision) — get yours for $9.99 from ThinkGeek.
