Advent Christmas book #3

For our third day we read the book: Calliou makes a snowman. Pinky loved since she loves Caillou already.

Synopsis:

With the help and guidance of his friend Sarah, Caillou experiences the joy of playing in the snow and learning to make his first snowman.

Our activity were: Making a cotton ball and pinecone snowmen and foil snowflakes.

Painting the pinecones.

Make a hole in the cotton ball with your finger and fill it with glue. Then put the mini pinecone inside.

The pinecone is the hat! And the cotton ball is the face. Glue two more cotton balls for the body, medium and large part. Tip: to get the medium size cotton ball, you need to unfold one cotton ball and enrolled around another one. For the largest part of the body, repeat the above step twice.

A tip from Pinky: be careful to don’t glue the cotton to your fingers!!

Use pipe cleaners for the hands and scarf', googly eyes; and jewels to decorate. You can use buttons, confetti or maybe felt pieces for the final decorations. I draw the mouth with a sharpie.

Pinky and mommy made 3 snowmen!!

Here are our paper foil snowflakes. I asked Pinky what did she think this was….she got very curious about it…but she told me that didn’t know….IMG_2141

After I unfolded….she got very excited to see a snowflake….Mommy is in love with that smile!!!!
