Directions
Print the template and gather the supplies you need. Get those scissors ready, and let’s help the kids bring this snowman to life!
Start with the snowman body piece on the table. Let your kid color the carrot nose with an orange marker or crayon.
Grab the hard hat piece and add a thin layer of glue on the back. Then help your child line it up at the top of the snowman’s head and press it down.
Now take the vest stripes and glue them onto the vest pieces. Trim off any excess paper that hangs off the sides.
Glue the vest pieces onto the snowman’s upper body, one on each side.
Next, glue the arms onto the back and sides of the snowman’s body.
Time for the traffic cone. Let your child color it in any way they’d like to.
Add glue to the back of the traffic cone and place it on one of the snowman’s hands. Press gently and hold for a moment so it sticks well.
