In 2010, we had fun with Snow Wishes (in the south that's about all you can do).
We had our snow stories, and the children cut out their own tortilla snow flakes. I had an assistant who baked them in the oven and sprinkled powdered sugar on them.
In order to identify which snow flake belonged to who, I pre-cut parchment paper squares and they wrote their names on the paper before baking. Here is the recipe:
Snowman Pencil Topper
For the other craft the children made snowmen pencils. I had already glued the Styrofoam head so they stuck the beaded eyes and mouth on. The nose is a bit of chenille pipe cleaner so they put it on with the little twigs and wrapped him in in a felt scarf.
At the end of the program we watched the DVD, Ramond Brigg's The Snowman. The music and quality of animated film is fantastic and the kids really liked it.
