- Cardboard tubes
- White wool, string, or twine
- Googly Eyes. You can make your own eyes from paper if you like.
- Orange foam or cardboard for the nose
- Buttons or other materials to “add buttons”
- A marker to draw his mouth
- Black or dark blue cardboard for the arms. You could also choose to use actual sticks!
- To make the ear warmers we used a pipe cleaner and pom-poms.
- Glue to stick it all together.

Do you want to build a snowman?
- First, you want to cover the cardboard tube with white wool.
- We cut a little slit on one side of the cardboard tube and used this as a starting and ending point to secure the wool.
- Once the tub is completely covered add your eyes, nose, mouth, and arms.
- Dress him with buttons and some ear warmers.

And there you have it! The cutest little cardboard tube snowman craft!
Perfect for winter!
