How to make one tasty snowman (not to eat)

We don't get much snow where we live so we rely on books, videos and the occasional road trip to explain what isn't a fact of our geographical lives.

Here's a sweet toddler art project to accompany a lesson on snow. It's simple and cheap and it gives those fine motor skills a workout. It also doubles as a yummy snack and lends itself to all sorts of extension activities (which I'll share with you later). And did I mention it's uber-uber-fun?

Step 1 Gather Materials

For this project you'll need:

Pretzel sticks
Mini-marshmallows
Raisins
Blue construction paper
White crayon
Glue
1/2 cup measuring cup
Spoon (not pictured)

Optional Items:
Three small bowls and one large bowl for a pouring/mixing activity
