Package from Grandma Franson

This week we got a great package from Grandma Franson. So fun and well-thought out! Thanks, Grandma, for sending us a party-in-a-box on a week we really needed it! See below for the cute ideas.



1. "The Day the Snowmen Stood Still"--see cute craft with cotton balls, googly eyes, etc.

2. "The Sound of Snowmen"--Sing the song and do the actions to 'Once there was a Snowman'.

3. "Snowman Story"--Read 'A Snowman Just Named Bob'.

4. "Beauty and the Snowmen"--Make snowmen out of carmel popcorn balls. (Mom being the Beauty.)

5. "Robosnowmen"--Build a real snowman outside when it snows. If you want, make him robot-style.

6. "Monty Python's Search for the Snowman"--Take turns hiding a little stuffed snowman somewhere in the house and let the other go find him, like hide and seek. (My boys favorite of them all!)

7. "Snowmen Wars"--Have an indoor snowball fight with giant marshmallows.

What a fun idea! I need to get more creative like that with my kiddies. I know they would love it and we'd have fun. Thanks for the ideas!

What a fun package to get! We will definitely be using the marshmallow "snowball" fight idea! The fire and ice festival looked so fun as well. I love free community events that are for families. Cute boys!

You are a great mom! What a great idea, of course I will have to steal it now. And we just got some new snow to try out too.
