Member Sarah N. shared this fantastic child created snowman. She put collage materials on the table and this is what her 2.5 yr old kiddo made... She told Sarah "I make a snowman like Chilly"-so sweet!
ITEMS TO ADD TO YOUR DRAMATIC PLAY SPACE:
Add a variety of winter weather dress up items (mittens, scarves, etc.) to your dramatic play space as well as pretend snowballs.
This clever space below, belongs to community memberAmy McMonagle of BuggaBee & Me Daycare. Amy sewed these large snowballs from felt. After the children have stacked their snowman, they can embellish him with snowman features that attach with velcro.

Member Jenna L. provided materials for creating animal territories and places to hibernate! I love the creative use of both classroom materials and outdoor collections that were used!
Member Laurie C. shared this fun activity to go along with the book Footprints In The Snow. I love when activities stem from a good book!
Community member Lori C. of Lori's House Daycare brought out play shoes to make footprints in play dough! This is such a clever way to talk about footprints and patterns!
