An Activity for School-age Children:

Create a fun snowman companion!

Before You Begin:

Gather the art supplies needed: butcher paper, wiggly eyes, pipe cleaners, a wood sample block, a few sticks, a glue gun, ribbon or fabric, markers, black felt or buttons.

Activity Goals:

To create a fun winter character for holiday dramatic play.

Furthermore:

If a glue gun is not available, or if you choose not to use one around children, you may use a stapler, duct tape or washable glue to attack items to your snowpal.

Steps:

1. Crumple up a couple large sheets of butcher paper, or stuff two white paper bags with
   materials such as old scrap paper.
2. Using a glue gun, glue one body piece to a wood block. Then, glue the second body piece
   on top of the first.
3. Cut buttons, eyebrows, a nose and a mouth out of felt.
4. Glue each piece onto the snowpal where desired. Add sticks for arms, ribbon for a scarf
   and pipe cleaners for hair.
