Snowmen

Materials:

This is what we used but you can really use anything you have on hand. 

Styrofoam Balls
Sticks
Mini Hats (99 cents at JoAnn Fabrics)
Googly Eyes
Mardi Beads
Pipe Cleaners
Ribbons
Buttons
Pom Poms
Light Brite pegs
Glue (we used hot glue gun)


The Invitation


Close up of supplies


I hot glued a wooden craft square to the bottom of the ball to allow the snowman to stand up.  




We connected the balls together with a toothpick. 


Be sure to hold the toothpick in place when pressing down so it goes into both ends.  


"This scarf sure is tricky"

Then the frustration and feet stomping kicks in.

"I.... NEED..... SOME..... HELP!!!!!!!!"  


Adding buttons.


Eyes


After talking to my middle girl (2.5 years) about the glue gun being hot, etc.  She chose NOT to use it.  She asked me to squeeze out the glue while she placed her pieces on.  


My oldest (4 years).... the simple things in life.  :-)  


Singing and dancing.  


Finished. 


I also bought a foam seat cushion.  We cut out some shapes to decorate as well.  


Adding pom poms to her candy cane.  


Finished. 

You can thread a piece of string through these to hang on the tree.
