Skiing Cotton Ball Snowman

ages 2-6

Supplies

2 cotton balls, 1 wooden stir stick, a small piece of paper, thin ribbon, glue and puffy colored squeeze paint.

Activity Detail

Take two cotton balls and glue them together. Then take two wooden stir sticks, like the kind for coffee, and cut them about 1-2" long each. Glue the wooden sticks to a piece of paper side by side. Then glue the two glued cotton balls, one on top of the other, to the sticks with the sticks sticking out just a little bit in front to make little skis. This is the base for your skiing snowman. Next use some puffy paint or colored glue to dot eyes, nose, three buttons down the chest and a smile line for a mouth. Last, use some ribbon to tie a scarf around the neck and a little piece of paper to the top of the head to make a hat. Make a bunch of these, and you have a cute and original holiday centerpiece
