Building a real snowman out of snow is the most fun activity kids can do when it comes to snowmen and winter.

Like this year, sometimes the weather just doesn’t permit this. Where we live it has been unusually warm and our yard is full of mud.

No matter if it is too warm or too cold, or if you just want your snowman to last longer than the winter, this snowman craft is a fun winter activity.

Cut out the nose and eyes from the template.

Glue the eyes and nose on the small circular piece.

Allow the glue to dry.

Then use the templates again, to cut out the pieces for the mouth and glue them on the bottom of the nose.

Now cut out the hat from the templates.

Glue it on top of the small circular piece.

Glue the long red strip horizontally on the hat to decorate the hat.

Use the PDF templates to cut out the pieces for the snowman’s scarf.

Then glue the scarf over the overlapped area of both circles.

Finish it off by glueing the hands on the left and right side.
