Winter White Writing Activities & Crafts

Welcome! New to ABC and 123? Please check out our FAQ in the sidebar.
Are you still studying snow or, like me, are you SO over Winter already?!?! Well, these great learning and creating activities might inspire you to give the chill another chance before kicking off all things Spring!

K is for Kindergarten used the fictional book Snowmen at Night to introduce a fun writing project.

A Place Called Kindergarten used the non fiction book The Story of Snow to kick off an informational gathering/research activity and a neat follow up craft.

Ten Kids and a Dog used their handprints and some white paint to make adorable winter scenes.
Off 2 Kindergarten used the ficitional book The Snow Globe Family to inspire creative writing with her students.
Our Crafts~N~Things focused on the natural science part of winter by experiencing animals and their habitats.

While several of these links are from kindergarten teachers I believe the activities can be adapted appropriately for most preschool and elementary age students.

    The snowflake idea above, did the children draw with a white crayon and then paint over it with watercolors?

    Thanks
