A Snowy Canvas
White snow makes the perfect canvas for watercolours! We brought painting materials outdoors and the children were eager to create snowy artwork.

Shaving Cream Fun
What better on a cold, snowy day then to have a super messy, super fun shaving cream sensory experience on the art table.
It's even more fun when you add the primary colours of paint to it and experiment with colour mixing.

Geometric Snowflakes
After reading the book "Snow" we discussed snowflakes as a group.
The children were interested in discussing what snowflakes look like. We used the illustrations in the book as a guide; snowflakes are made of shapes, are symmetrical, and have 6 points.
We placed paper pattern blocks at a table and invited the children to make their own snowflakes.
