FROSTY THE SNOWMAN

Flower Pot Snowman

You will need:

* Medium-sized flower pot
* Medium-sized wooden or styrofoam ball
* Small piece of ribbon
* Green and red colored felt
* Old mittens or old socks that you can cut up (preferably fun-colored ones)
* 2 buttons
* Black, orange, and pink markers
* White paint
* Googley eyes
* Glue

Directions:

1. Paint the outside of the flower pot and the Styrofoam or wooden ball white. You may need 2 or 3 layers, so allow the first layer to dry, then paint the next layer after.



2. Once dry, flip the pot over and glue the ball onto the bottom of the pot.
3. Take the felt scraps and cut a piece about 4 inches in length and 3 inches in height. Glue the felt around the top of the ball to give the snowman a little hat. Gather the felt at the top and tie with the ribbon.4.Glue the two buttons onto the body of the snowman.
5.Cut the old sock or mitten into a mini snowman scarf, or, if you have a few pipe cleaners handy, you can simply twist these to form the scarf, as shown here. It needs to be about 5 inches in length and about an inch in width. Wrap it around the neck of the snowman and securely glue it.





Once all the glue is dry, stick on the wiggly eyes, make a dotted smile for the mouth, an orange carrot nose, and add some pink circles for the cheeks.


You’re done! The flower pot snowman will surely conjure up some holiday joy and bring Frosty back to life!

HERE COMES SANTA CLAUS

The kids got to see Santa at Alyssa's school. While Alyssa shopped in the Santa's cottage for little gifts for the family...Zach chased Santa around for a whole hour. He was even playing PEEK-A-BOO with Santa. Will just lays back and enjoys all the activities. Nothing gets William excited...as you can see he is YAWNING...Hope you all are enjoying the fun Christmas season as much as our family is.

Leave me a comment on some of the fun activities your family likes to enjoy over this FUN season!!!
