[Childcare] Cute and rotund! Snowman craft ideas

Does it snow where you live?

I imagine some of you live in areas where heavy snowfall makes shoveling a challenge, while others have only seen snow on TV or in photos.

Still, no matter who you are, when you hear “snowman,” you probably picture a cute, round, chubby little snowman.

In this article, I’d like to share ideas for making these adorable snowmen.

We’ve included a wide range—from quick and easy projects to ideas you can take your time with—so please give them a try!

Note: Since the items made by children are treated as works, we refer to them as “creations” in the text.

Let’s make a snowman wall art with straw stamps.

First, an adult draws large and small circles on construction paper.

Using a plate as a guide is fun, too.

Then, draw a snowman’s hat on colored construction paper or origami paper.

Have the child cut it out.

Glue the cut-out pieces onto a darker-colored construction paper.

Once they’re glued, draw the snowman’s face with crayons.

For the straw stamp, cut slits into the end of a straw and spread them out so it forms a flower shape.

Dip it in white paint and dab it on—this creates lovely snowflake-like prints.

Spinning Snowman Craft

Just watching the twirling little snowman is delightful and gives you a sense of the season.

Start by cutting a round piece of paper into a spiral.

Cutting curves can be tricky, so try dividing tasks between parent and child to make it fun.

Finally, once you attach the face and hands, your snowman craft is complete.

You might also like to add beads or sparkly tape to the spiral-cut sections.

It will be a lovely time for parents and children, so give it a try!
