There are lots of ways you can build a snowman without even having to step outdoors.
Of course you could dress up as a snowman – if you don’t have a costume maybe just put on white clothes with a hat and scarf.
We had a bit of a look and find activity with circles. I asked the children to look for things that were circular – and different sizes.
Then I asked them to sort them into big, medium and small (this proved too much with the youngest so we changed it to just big and small).
Then they drew around some of the circular things they found to make a snowman body and head.
Then taped them together, and drew faces, scarves on them.
Then of course there were the tasty snowmen
I put the ingredients into little jars
2 marshmallows each, some marzipan, black ready roll icing, strawberry laces, chocolate button, and an orange lace.
Then they attached the ingredients with icing-sugar.
Then we made toilet roll holder snowmen.
Materials
Glue on the nose
And the eyes
Then draw on a mouth.
Glue on the cotton wool snow.
For the scarf we used some left-over Christmas ribbon.
And some card for a hat.
what a clever idea I must make this at school
An excellent day of snowmen! Did you think of all those ideas yourself? I may have to borrow the marshmallow snowman ideas as it looks yummy.
The marshmallow snowman is an idea from a childminder 🙂
We have no snow here in southern Ontario, Canada, maybe later this week though.
