    Finding fun winter crafts for kids can be a challenge. The trick is to find a fun theme and turn it into a week of reading, crafts, and movies. A consitent theme makes it so much fun for kids to learn, play and really get involved. That is why I love this Paper Plate Melting Snowman and Melting Snowman Poem!

    You can read the simple poem, Melting Snowman to your child and then gather the supplies for this fun and simple craft so they can make their own Melting Snowman!

    Keep with the Snowman theme and check out these fun 5 Little Snowmen finger play gloves and this Simple Snowman Snack that kids are sure to love.
