Do you need a fun, easy, but still edible craft activity for a larger group? Make a marshmallow snowman with the kids!
Marshmallow snowmen are a great option for class parties, if edible crafts are allowed, as all ingredients can be brought in in sealed packages. They are also great for playgroup crafts or even a fun holiday table activity to keep the kids occupied before or after dinner. Not only that, they’re cute and rather tasty too!
What You Need to Make a Marshmallow Snowman:
- 2-3 large marshmallows
- 1 graham cracker
- Mini chocolate chips
- Candy corn
- Icing as “glue”
- Pretzel sticks
- Craft sticks, toothpicks, and paper plates for easy clean up
To Make a Marshmallow Snowman:
- Using your craft stick to spread icing, glue one marshmallow on top of the graham cracker and the second marshmallow on top of the first.
- Carefully use a toothpick to pierce the marshmallow and insert a candy corn nose.
- Using the toothpick again, pierce the marshmallow for eyes and insert the pointy end of the mini chocolate chips into the marshmallow, push into place.
- Repeat this step for buttons on the bottom marshmallow
- Break a pretzel stick in half and poke a half-pretzel into the sides for arms.
- Serve and enjoy!
- Optional: add a vanilla wafer and mini peanut butter cup for a hat or trim fruit leather/fruit roll to be a scarf.
