Try not to make the snowman too big, then you will finish the preparatory process faster. Now take blue cardboard and draw the silhouette of our snowman on it. After that, glue the entire inner surface of the drawing with napkin blanks. It is important that the balls are pressed very tightly against each other, otherwise the cardboard will show through between them. It is better to do this procedure in several stages: glue a row - wait for it to dry, then proceed to the next row. This way the balls will lie more evenly and not go beyond the outline. When all the blanks are glued to the outline, put it aside - let it dry well. In the meantime, cut out eyes, a carrot nose and a hat for the snowman from colored paper. You can also add a scarf or mittens, in general, everything that your imagination is capable of. All these parts are carefully glued with PVA to their proper places.

In the process of work, you can tell the child a fairy tale in which the main character is the "eared one", explain why he changes his "fur coat" in winter. So working on the craft will bring the child even more pleasure. So, we will mold the hare itself from white plasticine, make the eyes blue, the nose - pink. For the carrot, you will need orange and green.

- Now we make four identical brusochka - it will be paws. We connect them with the trunk;
- Do not forget about the tail and ears;
- We attach eyes made from purple plasticine and a nose made from pink to the hare’s face.
