This winter at Sunset Park Library, we found out there’s Snowplace Like Home. Together, we read “Here Comes Jack Frost” by Kazuno Kohara, and then we made our very own paper villages—and got snowed in!
We worked on making our own winter scenery. All it took was some construction paper, a few pre-cut shapes, and a little basic folding talent.
…and the kids loved it! They had a great time making their paper villages, and we even used Popsicle sticks, sharpies, and glitter paint to make some snowflakes to go with it.
We stuck some self-adhesive magnets on the back of our snowflakes so the kids could take their snowflakes home to display on their fridge.
One of our patrons, Devin, got creative and made a haunted snow village!
Be sure to check out some of these snow-themed books before winter's over!
You can find a Kids Create program at your local branch. Come in and get crafty!
