Three kiddos hit me up with that question this morning. After Christmas, I’d gone shopping with my sister-in-law and niece, and I’d picked up some clearanced Christmas crafts at Michael’s to use next December. I ran to the closet, pulled out a snowman project that said, “Ages 4 and up”, and we got started.
I’m pretty sure that most 4 year olds could not do this alone. I stared at the head for several minutes before figuring out how to fold and glue it! :) The 4 year olds glued their own, but I folded them into the correct shape.
Max had no clue, but he was trying…and taking all the sticky pieces and putting them all over the counter and wall. I did much of his project for him. Max did the face by himself, although I have no idea where the carrot nose ended up. His end result is rather Picasso-ish! ;)
Alex understood, but he got a little carried away with the glue. I made the hat for him, as it’s just a bit too tricky for a 4 year old.
Grace needed a little help with the hat, too, but otherwise did hers independently.
Here are our end results…bobble-head snowmen to decorate our counter for a few days! :)
