Snow creatures fall to earth unassembled


Build a large SNOW WORM in your yard

You will need:

food coloring
snow and sticks
fruit or vegetables (ie: oranges, carrot)
  1. Make several large snow balls.
    (One bigger than the rest for the head.)

  2. Use the fruit or vegetables to make eyes and a nose. Like you would with a regular snowman.

  3. Mix the food coloring in with some water and fill up a spray bottle to spray your worm with whatever color you want.

  4. Have fun but try to stay out of the garden area or you may compact and damage the soil.

  5. This activity is great fun for the entire family. Invite your neighbors to join in the fun too.

What do you call a country where everyone's car is pink?
A pink CARnation.


    CREATE YOUR OWN WINTER GARDEN:

  • Take a seed catalog and cut out your favorite flowers.

  • Glue them onto popcicle sticks.

  • Insert the sticks into a flower pot filled with spanish moss or place them into a flattened roll of play dough.

What do you get if you cross a parrot with a centipede ?
