This resource is designed to inspire both art and writing. Students will first complete their melting snowman craft and then use the included writing prompts to tell the tale of how their snowman ended up in a puddle. Differentiated writing pages with wide, narrow, and primary lines make the activity accessible for multiple grade levels.

Need ideas on ways to share your snowman art? Here are a few of our favorites!

• Create an “Oops, We Melted” Bulletin Board – Cover your bulletin board with blue paper to mimic a chilly winter day. Add snowflake cutouts around the edges. Post each student’s melted snowman craft along with their writing piece. Use large, bold letters for the title: “Oops! We Melted!” so students and visitors instantly see the theme.
• “Snow Much to Read” Reading Corner Feature – Post the melted snowmen around your reading corner or library shelves. Pair the crafts with a winter-themed book display (like Snowmen at Night or The Biggest Snowman Ever). Add a title card that says “Snow Much to Read!” so the crafts double as seasonal decor and an invitation to read.
