Winter Crafts #1: Snowman
As we all know snowman and winter go together, people make snowman out of the snow and play with it. This is one of the best easy craft ideas for winter. Let's start with it.
Things Required
- Sandwich sized plastic zip-lock bags
- Cotton or tissue paper
- Paper
- Crayons or markers
- Tape
- Fill the ziplock bags with cotton or tissue paper. Ziplock the bag and fold the two corners of the other side of ziplock. Staple both the corners.
- Let your child draw the head, legs, and hands of the snow man.
- Cut out the drawings.
- Now place them at the right places on the plastic bag. You are ready with your snowman.
- Hard big cardboard
- Tea Box
- Green and red colored construction paper.
- Cotton Balls
- Glue
- Markers
- Scissors
- Take a hard cardboard and put a thin layer of glue.
- Now take the cotton balls and stick them on the surface of the cardboard completely.
- Wait for 10 minutes so that it can dry. By the time take the tea box and with the help of glue, stick the construction paper on it.
- Make doors, windows on the construction paper and put glue below the surface and stick it to the cardboard.
- Now take the construction paper and fold it according to the roof of the house. Now put the glue and paste it on the house.
- Paste some snowballs on the roof.
- Now take the green construction paper and make them in shape of bushes.
- Glue the bushes on the cardboard in front of the house and the other places and then stick some snow balls over the bushes.
- Leave it to dry. You are ready with a winter snow scene.
- Clear Acetate sheet
- Glitter glue
- If your kid is very small then you will need a printout of snowflake design which he/she can use for tracing.
- Take a clear acetate sheet and with the help of glitter glue draw snowflakes on it.
- If your kid is too small then keep a printout of the snowflake below the acetate sheet and ask him/her to trace it.
- Leave it to dry
- As soon as it dries cut the edges according to the shape or just trim it.
- Your snowflake is ready. You can either tape it on the window or just make a hole at one of the corner of the acetate and hang it on your Christmas tree.
