Starting with my microwave play dough recipe, http://workingmomwonders.blogspot.com/2013/03/microwave-play-dough.html, we worked to create these snowmen.
I added a little white glitter to the mix before microwaving it.
The kids asked for hats, so I pulled off a chunk of the white dough and colored it with black food gel coloring.
I gave them a bunch of buttons, Christmas ribbon, pipe cleaners, and google eyes to place on their snowmen. They went outside on a little nature hunt to find twigs for the arms. This was a really fun activity that didn't take long to complete--under 20 minutes. After they were done making snowmen, they turned the dough into pizzas and decorated the pizza with the colored buttons.
