Cute Printable Snowman Prop for the Winter Circle Time

Props make a world of difference when interacting with toddlers and young preschoolers at circle time.

If you’ve been teaching this age group for awhile, you know what a challenge it can be to keep their attention.

I’ve found that giving them something to hold, something related to the activity, makes a big difference.

Since one of our themes in January includes snowmen, I just had to create some snowmen props.

These can easily be turned into snowman stick puppets that you and your students can hold.

Assembling the Printable Snowman Prop

What you will need:

Popsicle sticks or Jumbo Craft Sticks
Laminator
Scotch tape

Preparation:

Using the Printable Snowman Props

Hold up one of the snowman sticks and tell the children that they will be getting their own stick to hold.

After giving each child one snowman stick, read a snowman book, recite a rhyme, or sing a snowman song. Make sure you are holding one, too!
