Abstract: A snowfall simulator which houses and dispenses artificial snow from a box like housing (20) using agitation. The box or dispenser has small openings (32) uniformly placed on the bottom horizontal plane. Mounted directly over the desired area, shaved polystyrene, used for snow, is placed inside the housing. A small motor (14) attached on the outside of the housing is connected by gear (16) and shaft (18) to a light-weight reticulated agitation plate (24) resting on the inside bottom horizontal plane of housing. The motor creates a gentle horizontal agitation under the artificial snow causing it to slowly work itself out of the dispenser through the bottom openings. By this arrangement, a long-lasting, gentle, realistic snowfall effect is created uniformly over an imitation village, Christmas tree, or display. Once the dispenser is empty, the snow can be collected off the bottom and placed back into the dispenser for further enjoyment.
