Dressing a Snowman

Today we dressed a felt snowman.  I cut a simple snowman out of felt and we added his parts.  We talked about quite a bit of vocabulary during this activity and used our fine motor skill to put him together.  I got this idea from a great therapy web site.    http://therapyfunzone.com/blog/2011/12/snow-man-dressing/.











Adeline was quite proud of herself when she finished!  Did you notice she has her glasses on?  This is a huge accomplishment!

We "pushed" snowflake toothpicks into playdough.

  9. Love the glasses! Marvin has them in green. They are indestructable, which you will love. We have the same snowman work out at my school and it is so well loved. Do you do the snowman rhyme? You could get 5 stuffed snowmen or make 5 felt ones and teach it. It goes 5 little snowmen sitting in a row each with a hat and a big red bow. Out came the sun and it shone all day and one little snowman melted away. You work down to one. Great for counting backwards, memory, and it is just cute with the actions. My 2s love it and my K pretend to be too cool for it, but they are the first ones to "volunteer" to give the snowman lesson to the younger ones!

  10. I was thinking when I saw the picture how cute her glasses were. I am a first time visitor to the blog so I didn't know it was an accomplishment. That is awesome. I love them so I hope she starts to soon. I wore glasses from a young age and they are not fun. I feel for her having to wear them, but it is so much nicer to see.

    I also loved this activity. I need to get some felt and try it this week. I think they have felt at the dollar store even.

    Thanks for sharing at Monday Madness. Hope to see you again tomorrow!
