Bubble Wrap Snowmen

Materials for Part 1:

• Bubble wrap
• White paint
• Rolling pin

1. Tape bubble wrap to a large rolling pin. Then, spread white paint on a plate or tray and have children roll the bubble wrap into the paint. Then, they will paint their whole piece of paper. We choose to use black paper. While the children are rolling the pin, discuss what they notice as they paint. Also, talk about how the rolling pin moves.

2. Lay flat and let dry once the paper is covered.

Materials for Part 2:

• Blue construction paper
• Markers
• Glue
• 3 various sized circles for tracing

1. Once the paint is dry, flip the paper over and trace 3 different sized circles. Have the children cut out each circle. This will become the snowman.

2. Talk about how you build a snowman and have the children glue their circles onto the blue construction paper. As they were gluing their circles on, we talked about the small, medium, and large circles and where we should start to build a snowman.

3. After they glue the snowman together, add a face and arms to the snowman.
