We all make snowmen which is great fun but how about ringing the changes and making a different character? What about a snow-dog, a snow-dragon, a snow-penguin, a snow-teddy or even a snow-mummy or daddy! The possibilities are endless!
We’ve been busy in the garden making a snow cat that Biscuit and Crumb decided to call Tabitha. We painted her with simple poster paint but mixed up powder paint would work just as well too.
The children loved how it brought their character to life. Say hello to Tabitha the Snowcat, our new pet.

We’d love it if you’d leave a comment to tell us all about your snow creations too.

Miaow! He’s certainly looking a bit floppy this morning, it must have rained a little in the night.

It’s lovely that you’ve dropped by to say you like it, thankyou. The boys have been so excited reading people’s reactions, they feel really proud. We’ve been snow painting for years, my mum started it off when I was young! x
This looks fab. We wanted to do food colouring but I only had green, and we did not have enough snow to make any kind of animal unless it was very very small!

Oh what a shame you’ve not had much snow. Fingers crossed some more comes your way. x
That’s awesome, really makes a difference from the regular snowman! Thanks for sharing at the Outdoor Play Party
Thanks Hannah, it’s lovely to be involved and to see so many wonderful ideas.
Love Tabitha and why have I never thought of painting the snow???
Lol, well a whole lot of colourful winter fun awaits you now. x
That is fantastic! So much fun. I bet your children will remember that for a long time to come. We just have a rather large snowman who is currently wearing my hat and scarf.

I remember doing snow painting with my mum so I hope my boys will remember it too. Your snowman sounds lovely, I bet your little one thinks it’s lovely.
