I love you SNOW much- Fun Christmas DIY project for kids

Today was my daughter's kindergarten Christmas party and I was in charge of providing fun projects for the kids to make.

The chalkboard ornaments I posted a little while back were an obvious choice, but coming up with a second easy to do project, was a bit more challenging.

I came across the saying "I love you SNOW much" and just had to figure out a way to to use it. So I came up with a paper snow globe project. I found precut circles at Michael's (I used my 50% off coupon that you get via email and the best part is there is no need to print, just show them your phone). Next in Microsoft PowerPoint I wrote the text and inserted a trapezoid shape. A couple of copy and pastes later I had 6 per page and printed them on green paper. I cut them out, hot glued them to the circles and brought them to the class. There each child was told to color a picture within the circle, then take a glue stick and spread glue wherever they wanted snow. Lastly, I placed the the snow globe on a small tray, sprinkled fake snow on top and then shook of the excess.

The result, these REAL simple, REALly cute pieces of artwork to take home to the one they love snow much.
