loulou the terrarium ornaments are so neat!!! This is something I would love to do!!
Momof4, I used a half foaming shaving cream/half white glue mix. I also cut out the three circles for the snowman and put glue on it and then the child puts the circles wherever they want on the page. I have a snowman ornament out as a visual aid but again I let them do the craft themselves other than the prep. Older children tend to put the the circles on top of one another and then "paint" the mixture onto the snowman, but in this picture the circles ended up literally on top of each other and the mixture was finger painted on. Then I gave googly eyes and beads for the eyes, nose, mouth etc which they stick wherever they think it should go. To try and down-size the extreme mess that was bound to happen with a one year old, lol, I kept clothes close by and ran to the sink heh! It was still messy but that's what makes it so fun!!! And I love that it turned out looking like a melted snowman!!!
