Frosty the Snowman Was a jolly, happy soul With a corncob pipe and a button nose And two eyes made out of coal

Frosty the Snowman Is a fairy tale they say He was made of snow, but the children know How he came to life one day There must have been some magic In that old silk hat they found For when they placed it on his head He began to dance around! O Frosty the Snowman Was alive as he could be And the children say he could laugh and play Just the same as you and me Thumpetty thump thump Thumpety thump thump Look at Frosty go Thumpetty thump thump Thumpety thump thump Over the hills of snow Frosty the Snowman Knew the sun was hot that day So he said "Let's run and we'll have some fun now www.staidenshomeschool.com 2007

Before I melt away." Down to the village With a broomstick in his hand Running here and there all around the square Saying "Catch me if you can!" He led them down the streets of town Right to the traffic cop And he only paused a moment when He heard him holler "Stop!" For Frosty the Snowman Had to hurry on his way But he waved goodbye saying "Don't you cry, I'll be back again some day." Thumpetty thump thump Thumpety thump thump Look at Frosty go Thumpetty thump thump Thumpety thump thump Over the hills of snow

How to Make a Snowman

Everyone loves making snowmen/women. Here's how to make a snowman that will be the envy of your block. Before you start, plan where you want the snowperson to go, and how big you want it to be.

1. A friendly companion for your front yard Find a nice big patch of snow which you can use to make big snowballs with. Snow which is very icy or very fluffy will probably not work very well. Gather a handful of snow and pack it tightly with your two hands, shaping it into a ball. Place the ball on the ground and roll the ball along your snowy patch. As you roll, the ball will pick up more snow and will grow larger and larger as the snow from the ground sticks to it. Make one very large snowball. A height of 1 foot to three feet or more is recommended. www.staidenshomeschool.com 2007

Make another snowball a little bit smaller. Make another snowball which is smaller still. This will be the head. Stack snowballs up from largest to smallest, being careful to pack tightly and balance them so they won't fall down. Place a carrot in the middle of the head to act as a nose. Use buttons or pebbles and place them above the carrots to represent the eyes. Use a row of pebbles or coal to show a smile beneath the carrot nose. Top off the snowman with a hat and place a scarf around its neck. You may be able to add some arms if the snow is easy to work with. Take a picture fast, before it starts to warm up outside. WARNINGS: Choose your location carefully so that your final snow man does not block your driveway or your door.

How to Draw a Snowman In this process you will learn how to draw a simple but fun snowman. Have fun! 1.

Draw a medium sized ball. Draw on top of this, a slightly smaller ball than the one you just drew.

2.

Draw another ball on top of those that is slightly smaller than the rest. You can use more than three balls, just make sure the one you put on top of the others needs to be slightly smaller than the one before.

3.

Draw some dots (buttons) down the bottom two circles.

4.

Draw a hat that looks like a top hat for your snowman’s head.

5.

Draw a scarf to go around its neck, which is the bottom part of the top circle.

6.

Add two eyes a pointy nose and a mouth to its head.

7.

Draw two stick arms coming out of the middle circle.

8.

Draw the snowman holding a broom in one of its stick hands. Now you’re done.

Try to find something round like the bottom of a cup. You can trace around the bottom of the cup for the circles you will need for the snowman body.(But, you would need to find different sized cups, because each circle needs to be smaller than the one under it.) YOU WILL NEED •

pencil

cups or something round (possibly) www.staidenshomeschool.com 2007

How to Make a 3D Snowman Decoration

The Complete Decoration

Make a cute display for Christmas.

STEPS 1. Combine 1 cup of flour, 1 cup of salt, and 1/2 cup of water in a bowl. Stir the mixture with a wooden spoon until smooth. 2. Divide the dough into 6 equal pieces and shape each into a snowman, flattening the base so it will stand up (each piece should be divided into two balls for the head and body). 3. Microwave the snowmen on a plate one or two at a time for 20- to 30second intervals until the dough is fairly firm (about 1 1/2 to 2 minutes in total). Let the snowmen cool (they can get quite hot). 4. Use a fine-point permanent black marker to draw on eyes and a mouth. 5. For a nose, cut off the very tip of a carrot and glue it below its eyes and above its mouth. 6. Use felt or fabric to make a scarf or hat for the snowman. TIPS Use colored fabrics or felt (preferably red or green).

www.staidenshomeschool.com 2007

When putting snowmen in the microwave, make them taller than what size you want (the snowman "melts" a little in the microwave), or lay it down on its back. Paint to paint the snowmen for a whiter effect if desired You can make anything out of these ingredients, not just snowmen. WARNINGS •

Be careful when taking snowmen out of the microwave; they can get hot.

How to Make a Snowman out of Beads STEPS 1.

Get the items you will need (these are listed below)

2.

Take your first bead and lay it so the hole is laying flat. Carefully put glue around the edge of it and lay the next bead on top of it. This bead should be opposite how the bottom on is (holes on the side)

3.

Next, take your last white bead and put glue around the edge of it. Place it on top of the second bead, and there’s the base of your snowman!

4.

Decorate your snowman with smaller beads and thread. With patience and care, your snowman can have a whole family!

TIPS Remember, your 'snowman' won't be perfect the first time you do it. Keep on practicing and your snowman will look like it really is made out of snow! Use thread to make clothes for your snowman, such as a scarf or a hat! Mix glue and water and spread it onto thread to make it stiff. Bend the thread in any direction first so it will look cool!

Enjoy the Christmas holiday with some fun free party games and activities. Frosty the Snowman is a simple Christmas themed game to play. Do you remember Frosty the Snowman? See who can turn their friend into Frosty the Snowman the fastest. Divide the players into groups of two. Give each team a roll of toilet tissue. When you say go, the team members have to wrap each other up from head to toe with the toilet tissue. The team that is completely wrapped first wins the game. Another possibility is to have accessories as part of the gamer as well. Try to make sure that everyone is involved and having fun for this game. There should be a judge making sure the person is completely wrapped. Everyone loves a Christmas prize so have plenty on hand! Make the prizes fun and memorable for all.
