DLTK's Holiday Crafts for Kids
Snowman Bottle Craft
Contributed by a viewer. Thanks Charlene!
"Here are some pictures of snowmen that I created for our preschoolers
at Sunday School to make this year. This is so easy that even three year olds could do it without trouble."
Materials:
creamer bottles (You know, the flavorful ones found in the refrigerator Activities)
googly eyes
black beads for mouth
colored toothpick for nose - cut in about 1 " length
glittery pompoms for top of hat
black pompoms for front of snowman
yarn or something to make a "scarf"
Small twigs for arms/hands - about 5 inches in length and in a Y form
Tacky glue works best for this project
Instructions:
Remove the plastic wrapper from the creamer bottle and put about a cup of sand in the bottle.
Glue on the googly eyes
Glue on black beads for the mouth
Poke holes for nose and arms with ice pick (it is much easier to insert them)
Insert the colored toothpick for nose
Glue on glittery pompoms for top of hat
Glue on black pompoms for the front of the snowman
For the scarf, wrap yarn around a piece of cardboard - about three times.
Use another piece of yarn to tie the ends together. Then wrap it around the neck of the snowman and
tie it.
