- Go ahead and have kids color in the bottom portion of the “snow globe” in the printout.
- Now grab one cupcake liner and have kids flatten it out with their hands.
- Using school glue, help them glue it down in the center of the printable. Add more glue to any edges that are not completely adhered down.
- Next up – add your children’s trimmed down photo, to the center of the liner.
- Finally, instruct them to add some cotton ball “snow” and various stickers inside the cupcake liner, to pull together the theme.
- Allow them to add any other embellishments they see fit and allow it to dry completely before displaying it proudly for all to see.
