The Melting Snowman
 
 
This game is a Christmas version of the favorite classic game Hangman  . Children remove a snowman part until the whole snowman has melted away! You can play it  when you want to practise grammar.
 
You can also use the melting snowman to practise spelling. 
 
 
Write down the first letter of the word you want them to spell and draw spaces for the rest.
 
How to make the snowman:
 
1. Use this,  if you want a simple printable.
2. If you want to have a 3D snowman, use foam cups for the body -you can use more than two- and half a foam cup  to make the head. If you don �t like foam cups, paper plates are also great.  You can  use a white pompom for the head. Pipe cleaners can be used for the arms.
3. As a hat you can use a sock. Cut the toe off and roll up the cut end.
4. Use an orange pompom  for the nose. Cut it into a carrot shape, making one side a little pointy. Make a small hole at the foam cup and stick the pompom into it.
5. Use tissue paper for the scarf.
6. The feet shapes can be drawn on simple paper.
7. The eyes and buttons can be made of buttons or pipe cleaners - you could either draw them on the cups.
