Disney’s Frozen is a winter movie kids love! Kids, parents, and grandparents all enjoy the story of Anna and Elsa who are sisters in a kingdom called Arendelle.

With kids counting down the days to winter break, they’ll love creating their own paper bag Olaf craft!

Kids of all ages will love this craft because it can be done at home without any special supplies and kids are involved in every step of the process–from cutting out his parts to gluing them together!

Plus, after kids are done creating him, he’s great for using in pretend play too! How fun!
