Christmas Crafts for Kids - Snowman Plant Poke
This snowman is easy to make and is a nice gift for your friends or relatives. It can also be used to decorate Christmas presents. Children may need some help from their parents with the glue gun but otherwise should be able to make this without too many problems.This project is recommended for children grades 3 or above because of the difficulty level and takes an afternoon to complete because of the drying time of the snow paste. Perhaps you can find other small items to use to decorate your snowmen!
