Marshmallow Snowmen



This week’s family activity was to build a craft. I reserved a Christmas craft book. We sat down in the children’s section of the library and picked out this craft.

Troy wanted to make yellow snow. We shaved some ice and filled some cups with apricot juice and some with cream soda.

We started building lunch and snowmen.

The empty Miracle Whip jar holds the slips of paper we pick every week that have one family activity on them. We had made a goal years ago to do more family outings, but this jar system is really working to help us determine what to do next.

Eating the marshmallow creations was fun!

Ellen’s review: I liked doing a food craft. The summer sausage, cheese, and crackers  were delicious. Making the snowman was one of my favorite parts of the activity.

Megan: I liked making the snowman. I liked Dad’s, Mom’s, and Troy’s. I liked mine too. I didn’t like the drink. I wanted water and not soda.

Troy:  I got a book. We went to the store to get food. Making the food was the most fun. I give this activity a 4 out of 5.

Dale: I thought it was a creative thing to do. Going to the library and store was fun. I thought it was good to see everybody having fun.
