Directions:
- First grab and print the FREE DONUT PRINTABLE. You will want to print this file on brown cardstock paper. Print one printable per child.
- Now you are ready to make your puffy paint! Place equal amounts of shaving cream and glue in a small dish.
- Mix together until well combined.
- Once you have the consistency and color you like, have children “paint” their donut in the provided printable. They will want to stay within the lines of the template. This will be the frosting {but not edible!} for the snowman.
- After children are done with the puffy paint step, have them “sprinkle” on some sprinkles on top of wet puffy paint.
- At this point in time you should also cut out the remaining embellishments {hat, eyes and nose} and stick those on top of the wet paint as well.
- When done, set aside the paper donut snowman masterpieces to let them dry completely before displaying proudly!
- If desired, once the puffy paint is COMPLETELY dry, go ahead and cut out the donut shape & glue it to another piece of colored cardstock paper. This will give your craft a cleaner look AND it adds another step to keep the craftiness going. Have fun!
