Crafting WITH the Kids

How to make your toilet roll snowman?

1. Paint a toilet roll tube with white paint.
2. Glue on googly eyes and buttons. You can also paint on the eyes and buttons if you prefer.
3. Paint a carrot nose and draw on a smile with pen. Tie a length of ribbon or fabric round the tube for a scarf.
4. For the hats you can use an odd mitten which had lost its partner. Then you can snip off the end of the mitten for one hat and then used pieces cut off the cuffs for the others. You can also make hats from odd socks or pieces of fabric. Why not make a whole family of snowman friends?

Simple winter hearts…

This activity is lovely for young children to help make and decorate. You just need to cut white heart shapes from card then your children can glue all sorts of embellishments onto the heart, then when the hearts and finished and dry you can hang them on your Christmas tree at home.
