PLAYING OUT IN THE SNOW

Do you remember rolling snow into balls to create three parts for a special snowman? It was a lot of fun, but that's not all. Making a snowman is also awesome exercise. Other things you can build in the snow is a good snow fort, having a snowball fight, or making snow angels (ask your parents about that). Moving all that snow around takes a lot of work, and is great exercise.

Last Month's Winners: Lance

SANTA CLAUS ON A TOILET PAPER ROLL

WHAT YOU NEED...

1 toilet paper roll

red crepe paper

red and beige construction paper

set of 6 or 8 mm wiggle eyes

8 mm red half bead for the nose

30 cm or 12” piece of white chenille

cotton batting for beard

stick glue

hot glue gun

red cording

WHAT TO DO...

First cut a wide strip of beige construction paper and adhere to the top half of the toilet paper roll. Take a wide strip of red crepe paper and adhere it around the top third of the toilet paper roll. Tie the top off with cording. Adhere a wide strip of red construction paper (or crepe paper) around the bottom half of the roll. Construction paper has the advantage that it is more durable and does not bleed when glue is added on it. Glue a piece of chenille around the bottom of the hat. Cut excess away on the backside. Glue a piece of chenille down the front center of the red paper (coat). Use the hot glue and glue on the wiggle eyes and nose. (Jewelry glue or designer tacky glue may also be used but needs longer to dry). Glue on the beard and also hair on the side of the head.
