Step 1
Round the bottom corners of the white construction paper rectangle to make a face. Round the top corners of the other 4" x 8" rectangle (sweater). Glue the sweater and face to one of the 9" x 12" construction paper sheets.
Step 2
Trim the remaining construction paper rectangle so it resembles a hat. Glue it onto the paper. Color the face to match your skin tone. Cut construction paper scraps and use crayons to add details to the face
Step 3
Crumple the tissue paper squares and glue them to the white circle (snowball)
Step 4
With your fingers together, trace your hands on the remaining 9" x 12" construction paper sheet and cut out the tracings (mittens).
