Get ready for a flurry of frosty fun in this brrr-illiant winter edition of Whizz Pop Bang! Curious kids can investigate the secret science of snow – how it forms, why it sparkles and how both people and animals manage to stay snug in freezing conditions. They’ll discover the clever engineering behind snowmobiles, have a go at making DIY fake snow and even try an insulation experiment that involves baking ice cream (really!).

Thread a wreath that will feed wild birds over the winter, investigate ice crystals and craft a festive gift box perfect for homemade treats.Meet snowflake expert Kenneth Libbrecht and uncover the remarkable work of Wilson ‘Snowflake’ Bentley, whose photographs revealed the hidden beauty of ice crystals.

Packed with quizzes, puzzles, jokes, paper craft and icy experiments, The Big Freeze is bursting with hands-on fun and fascinating facts to keep young scientists inspired all winter long.
