Directions
Download the Olaf template, print, and cut out the pieces.
Assemble the snowglobe by gluing the ball to the base. Use some glitter glue to decorate the snowglobe base if you want it to sparkle.
Take Olaf’s carrot nose and glue it to his black and white nose.
If you’re using paper to make Olaf’s arms and hair, glue the arms on either side of his body, on the backside.
Glue completed Olaf to the snowglobe ball. If you didn’t use the paper for Olaf’s arms and hair, use a crayon or marker to draw them in.
That’s it! Can you believe how simple this craft is?
It’s perfect for little Frozen fans who want an easy winter craft to make!
In our video and instructions, we showed you how to use paper to make Olaf’s hands and hair, but we have another way that’s perfect for little kids.
Instead of having to cut out those small pieces for each of your children, just grab a brown crayon or marker and use it instead!
Follow the steps listed above and glue Olaf to the snowglobe without the arms and hair. Then use the crayon to draw them in. It can’t get any easier than this!
