It doesn't take much planning to create this adorable winter craft for kids, just by using basic shapes.

How to make Fingerprint Snowman:

  • First cut out three circles from the colorful paper for this snowman project.
  • I used bowls and masking tape to trace the circles of different sizes
  • Cut out the circles
  • It's time to make the craft with the kids after cutting out the Snowman shapes!
  • To begin, the student should tape each of the three circles to the desired location on the paper, stacking them to resemble a snowman.
  • We used pieces of rolled tape to hold down the circles. Doubled-sided tape would work well too.
  • It's time to go painting now! Make fingerprints or thumbprints by dipping one finger into the paints.
  • First carefully to dab fingerprints on the entire edge of the shape. The snowman's silhouette will become more clear as a result.
  • After leaving a fingerprint around the snowman's edge, begin leaving sporadic prints all over the paper. 
  • For the eyes, mouth, and carrot-shaped nose, I used dry erase markers. 
  • Your snowman fingerprint artwork is now finished! How adorable!
