Do you let your kids eat snow?

I let my kids go at it. They'll live.

I think its supremely annoying when moms are hovering over kids and directing each movement. My kids gnaw on all sorts of things outside, LOL. one of them would eat huge mouthfuls of dirt for awhile. I let them crawl thru things, roll around, splash, bury themselves and definitely eat snow! The only thing I stop is if they are hurting others, like throwing rocks or sands, or if they get crazy putting things in their hair. My oldest has super thick red hair and it is just too nasty to let her have free reign with stuff in that hair
