Make Monday: Indoor snowman!

The temperatures dipped again bringing some more snow, ice, and cold. The little thaw we had a week or so ago makes me long for spring. If you are like us, cabin fever is taking over and we are running out of ideas. But then we still have a few snow days creeping up even though we are so done with winter.

Celebrate the end of winter season by making indoor snow fun with snowmen.


This cute little snowman is really a paint brush roller with leftover sock for the hat, button eyes, yarn for the mouth, and a piece of scrap fabric for the scarf.

Older kids (toddler on up) will have fun making this project to help pass the winter blues and replace boredom with creativity.

Feel free to decorate your own snowman in any way. Make all whole snow family for some puppet entertainment. Get out the cotton balls to use them as snow flakes. And take some white fabric draped over a box for some hills of snow.

To entertain younger kids, buy cheap rolls of toilet paper for some stacking and unrolling "snow" fun!

Hang in there!
