How to make a snowman name craft

Step 1: Prepare the blue paper

Take a sheet of blue construction paper and place it flat on your work surface. This will be the background for your snowman.

Step 2: Cut the snowballs

Take a sheet of white paper and draw several circles of the same size. Carefully cut out the circles with scissors. These circles will be used to make the snowman’s body.

Since this is a name craft, make as many circles as there are letters in the child’s name.

Step 3: Arrange the snowballs

Arrange the white circles vertically, placing one slightly over the other from top to bottom. Once you are happy with the arrangement, glue the circles together to create the snowman’s body.

Step 4: Make the hat

Draw the shape of a hat on black paper and neatly cut it out.

Cut a small strip from blue paper (or any color of your choice) and glue it across the bottom of the hat to create a colorful trim.

Stick the finished hat onto the top of the snowman’s head.

Step 5: Add the face

Use a black marker to draw the snowman’s eyes. Cut a small triangle from orange paper and glue it in the center of the face to make the carrot nose.

Then use the marker to draw a dotted smile below the nose.

Step 6: Write the name

Now comes the fun part!

Write one letter of the child’s name on each snowball, starting from the top and moving down. Or, if your child can write the name on their own, they can do it too.

Make the letters large and easy to see. Continue until the whole name is written across the snowman.

Step 7: Add the arms and snow

Use a black marker to draw two stick arms on either side of the snowman. Finally, add small white dots around the snowman to look like falling snow and give your craft a fun wintery finish.

Your snowman name craft is ready!
