Snowman Fun

There is no snow on the ground right now, but we are making our own snowman fun.

I printed the five little snowmen from The Activity Mom site and taped them to craft sticks.  Kate and I watched the Five Little Snowmen video and kind of sang along.

I saw an idea for a melted snowmen bath on Pinterest.  I thought it was cute, but I knew Kate would not get in the tub with the shaving cream snowmen (she doesn't even like bubbles in her bath), so I put them in our sensory tub instead.

 I added a drop of blue food coloring to the water before adding the melted snowmen.

I told Kate she could use her hands, but she chose a spoon instead.  I knew she would.

She was very excited about adding a drop of red food coloring to the water.

She liked that the water then turned purple.

 Then she wanted to add more and more food coloring.

It took a while for the food coloring to blend with the shaving cream, so we had a pretty swirly tub of color for a bit.  Kate loved it.

Yesterday, all of the kids enjoyed snowman doughnuts.

I still have plans for snowman bowling and snowy paint.  Hopefully, those happen soon!
