Winter is well upon us. Is it mild where you are or are you covered in snow? We don’t get snow here where I live. Sometimes we will drive to snow to experience it for ourselves but then we come back to our mild, snowless winter. We still love the idea of it, though. I still like to share classroom snow activities and snowman activities.
Kindergartners, even if they haven’t experienced it a ton, still usually love snow. They love the activities centered around snowmen and building one out of paper or having a snow sensory bin is still fun. Here are some of my favorite Snow & Snowman Activities For The Classroom. I created this list with Kindergarten in mind but they may work just as well for your classroom of a different grade!
