Cotton Ball Snowman
You’ll need: large sheets of butcher paper, white glue, cotton
balls, construction paper in different colors, scissors.
Cut two large circles out of white butcher paper, making one a
little bigger than the other. Dip cotton balls into the glue and
stick them all over the circles. Attach the two circles together to
form your Snowman. With the construction paper, draw and cut out a
snowman hat, mittens, boots, scarf, eyes, carrot nose and mouth.
Glue onto your snowman.
