Willie brought a wonderful craft idea home from school when she was a youngster, and we still enjoy making those glitter snowman globes today! Here's how:

• Get a baby food jar or small Mason jar.



• Glue a small plastic snowman to the inside of the jar with waterproof glue.



• Let it dry.



• Fill the jar with water.



• Add colorful glitter.



• Grate a bit of plastic and use the shavings for snow.



• Put the lid back on the jar.



• Melt some wax or use a hot glue gun to seal the lid.

We vary this craft by using different figures inside the jars and a variety of glitter colors!

For the younger kiddos, snowmen children crafts might include making doily snow people, which can be used as window or refrigerator decorations. You'll need one large doily for the body and two small doilies for the head and arms of the snowman.

Cut one of the small doilies in half to use as arms. Glue these items to colored construction paper and include buttons and wiggly eyes (or cutout paper for eyes, buttons, and nose).

With a paperclip, construction paper, and goodies for the nose and eyes, you can make a cute snowman children's craft into a necklace or ornament. There are many ways to create a snowman!

When crisp weather arrives, it's always a good idea to bring out your snowmen children crafts ideas. They can be enjoyed all winter, or given as gifts to very special relatives and friends.
