Christmas Craft Snowman Snow Gauge

Christmas is a time for family and friends to enjoy each other. What better way to do that then to do a Christmas Craft together?  Children really enjoy making Christmas Crafts with an adult. These Christmas craft ideas can be used by individuals or by groups.  Also the best gifts are the ones that are hand made. A great Christmas idea is to help a child on your list to make a Christmas craft they can give as a Christmas gift.

Supplies
  • Styrofoam balls in three different sizes
  • Plastic knife
  • Wood craft stick
  • Fabric scraps
  • Buttons, paperclips, sticks

    How To Make It
    1. Using a plastic knife, saw off a small slice from the smallest and largest balls and two slices opposite each other on the medium ball
    2. Slide a wood craft stick through the center of the middle ball, leaving part of the stick coming through each flattened end. Poke the other two balls onto the stick, lining up the flattened edges.
    3. Decorate the snowman anyway you want. Poke buttons into the balls with paper clips. Poke stick arms into sides of medium ball.
    4. Push the bottom of the snowman onto the high numbered end of the yard stick.
    5. After a good snowfall, stick the yardstick into the snow and see how deep the snow is.

    The Grant Beach Neighborhood Betterment Association is a group of citizens working together to maintain and improve the quality of living in our area. We meet monthly on a regular basis to address neighborhood concerns, and encourage residents to start smaller neighborhood watch groups in their block. We believe that people should actively participate as citizens in a democracy and as neighbors in in a community. We are a group of citizens interested in working together to maintain and improve the living quality of our neighborhood, motivate the city to address our concerns, be a spawning ground for neighborhood watch programs and build a sense of community among us. Working together, there is little that cannot be done, working apart there is little that can be done.

    Mission Statement: "Improving the quality of life in our neighborhood"

    This website is simply a tool we use to help keep our neighbors connected to each other, to their neighborhood and to their City of Springfield, Missouri. Please consider attending the monthly meeting. Potluck Dinner for the whole family and Free child care for the meeting
