Snowmen

 Welcome
My little kiddos are fascinated by snowmen, so we spent the week making them in different ways.
We learned about bringing snow inside and how it would melt and that rain could freeze and turn into ice.

So, here's what we did last week.

Melted Snowmen
These cute little snowmen are glued onto a piece of cardboard and the heads are popped up.

'S' is for Snowman
This was a good chance to learn letter S and other words that start with that.

Happy New Year!!

 Welcome and Happy New Year!
It's been a busy one already for me, but we have managed to have so much fun.
There really hasn't been snow to play in, just a lot of freezing rainy days.  The kids love creating so it's easy to fill our days with fun.

So, here's what we have been up to.

Happy New Year Star
I cut some old CD's into a star shape and we glued smaller stars onto it.



New Year Banner


Let's Celebrate
I made a cone shape from paper and we glued strips of tissue paper inside.  



New Year's Hats


Mitten Colour Match Game


Snowman Puppet

CD Snowman


Snowflake Suncatcher


Gnomes
These cute little Gnomes were easy to make.



Large Stars

Thanks a lot for coming by and taking a look.

Merry Christmas!!

 Merry Christmas

Such a busy time of year but I have to say, my kiddos had a blast creating surprises for their parents and family.  We sure kept busy as you will see.

So here's what we did.

The stockings were hung!


Paper Cup Rudolph


Paper Cup Santa


Gingerbread Houses


Gingerbread Men
We glued 2 pieces of brown paper together and stuffed them to make our Gingerbread Men.


Simple Trees

Santa Ornament


Jingle Bells
We wrapped a glitter pipe cleaner around a large popsicle stick, adding the bells as we wrapped.


Filling Santa's Sack



Gifts for the Parents

Simple Bookmarks
We made these using some contact paper and punched dots.


Wreath Ornaments



Cork Tags
We used a cork for the head and I used their fingerprints for the ears.


Santa Ornaments
We decorated some old CD's to create these fun ornaments.

Clothespin Rudolph


Snowmen
I cut the bottom of a water bottle off for the heads and we stuffed them with some white pompoms.
Added the details and hanger for the tree.



Clothespin Stars


Calendar
My baby needed to have something for the parents, so we traced her foot and hands to create this fun calendar.


Gum Ball Machine Ornaments
I hot glued this plastic ornament to a red cup.  We removed the hanger part and the kids added some peppermint M & M's.  After all the candy is gone, they can add some colourful pom poms or fill it with more candy next year.

Rudolph Christmas Card 


Our Party

Here are some fun games we played at our party.

Christmas is Coming

 Welcome
Lots of preparations and crafting is happening at my house right now as we get ready for the big day.
The kids are super excited and are anxious to get busy at the craft table.

So, here's what we did last week.

Christmas Countdown
This cute Santa will help the kids count down to Christmas.



Paper Plate Christmas Trees
The kids loved these little Christmas trees.  
I cut a green paper plate in half, then rolled it into a cone shape.  I glued part of paper towel roll into the bottom and the kids decorated them.



Christmas Tree
Obviously my 2 yr old loves orange right now.


Poinsettia Wreaths
We made these simple poinsettias and glued them onto a paper plate wreath form.
