"ART" comes in all different shapes and sizes. Try making an "Igloo", "Polar Bear" or even "Snowman" out of clay this weekend. Don't have clay? Try using marshmallows instead, while sipping on a warm cup of cocoa.
All of the materials for a clay igloo are listed on our partner's website-https://www.pbs.org/parents/crafts-and-experiments/igloo
FYI- There is a recall warning for 6 and 8 oz Green Sprouts Toddler Stainless Steel Bottles and Cups for lead poisoning.

Let's keep up the "ART" activities this month using a new material- YARN! WGVU has a fun "Yarn Snowball" craft idea for you to try this month. These "snowballs" make great winter decorations for your home or ornaments for your tree. You can make them for yourself or wrap them up for loved ones this gifting season!
