Art - Snowman

Since winter is coming soon, we started our art time with Deb reading the story "There Was a Cold Lady Who Swallowed Some Snow" by Lucille Colandro. At the end of the story, the lady becomes a snowman, which was today's topic! 
First, the children painted their snowman with the colour they liked. Then, we glued and decorated the snowman with buttons and straws. 








It was very interesting to see that some children sticking to the idea that snowman is white. Some of the children painted their snowman while or pale pink; some children just left it plain without painting it. This activity also reminded the children what items we usually use to decorate snowmen. Here we could see the children reflecting the knowledge they already knew. 
Roy - "People use carrots for snowman's nose!"
Trystan - "Sticks are snowman's arms."
