Preschool Craft Project: Paper Plate Snowman



Supplies Needed:

2 Paper Plates (1 Small, 1 Large)
Glue
Tape
Scissors
Construction Paper
Small Craft Popsicle Sticks or Craft Pipe Cleaners

Note: If you do not have the small sized paper plate, just take a large paper plate and cut it to a smaller size.


Directions:




1 – Help your child glue the two paper plates together. The smaller plate goes on top (this is the snowman’s head). Add tape for extra reinforcement.






2 – Draw the outline of a hat on colored construction paper and cut.

3 – Have your child glue the hat to the small plate (the snowman’s head).



4 – Have your child draw a face on their snowman. Craft eyes, if you have them, work great.










5 – Cut out four small circles from construction paper. Have your child glue them to the snowman’s body for the buttons. They can also just draw them on too.







6 – Use either craft pipe cleaners or popsicle craft sticks to create the snowman’s arms. Have your child flip the project over and tape them to the back. Tape is easier than glue for this step because it holds better and quicker.
