(This idea came home from school.)

Materials:
  • large sheet of blue construction paper
  • white paper cut into three circles (large, medium and small)
  • coloured construction paper cut into the shape of mittens
  • optional: black construction paper cut into the shape of a hat and two round eyes
  • optional: orange construction paper cut into a triangle
  • optional: red construction paper cut into the shape of a mouth
  • glue
  • white tempra paint and big round paint brush (alternately, an old bottle cork will do)
  • optional: other colours of paint to add / decorate hat, eyes, nose, mouth etc

Instructions:
  • have child glue the circles -- largest at the bottom of the sheet, smallest at the top
  • add mittens, hat, eyes, nose and mouth
  • dab paint to make snowflakes falling from the sky (the paint on this image was dabbed on with an old bottle cork)
