Recycled Snowman Craft


My four year old had fun making this snowman recently.  The idea came to me after we received a package in the mail whose contents were surrounded by some thin packing foam.  I thought it would make a perfect snowman.


My son and I gathered 3 different sized circular objects and traced them onto the packing foam.  We also made a wavy line to serve as snow on the ground.


We cut everything out and then glued it to a piece of construction paper.  We added wiggly eyes, a construction paper hat, pipe cleaner arms (taped under the middle circle), and drew buttons and a mouth on the snowman.


My son was so proud of his work and couldn't wait to show his daddy when he got home.

Not only was this a fun craft, but it gave us an opportunity to talk about size order and circles.
