Snowman Learning Activities for Kids

December 10, 2025 by Sarah White Leave a Comment

If you live somewhere that gets snow (and really even if you don’t!) you might want to incorporate some snowman learning activities when it’s cold outside. There are lots of fun snowman themed worksheets and activities so let’s dig into it!

Use snowmen to learn about and talk about your feelings with these snowman feelings chart activities from Living Life and Learning. They also have a nice set of snowman worksheets including a fill-in-the-blank poem, I-spy and more.

Have kids draw a silly snowman and tell a story about it with these roll a snowman printables from The Artisan Life. This one is fun for the whole classroom to do so you can see how they all turn out different.

Get a little math practice in with the snowman spin printable math game from The Kindergarten Connection. Kids make the snowman into a spinner then spin two numbers and add them together to color in the mittens. Or play with shapes while building snowmen with these printable snowman shape puzzles from Preschool Play and Learn.

Snowmen are a great theme for STEM activities as well, of course, so why not turn a marshmallow building challenge into a snowman building challenge? This idea from MomBrite has kids trying to build the tallest snowman. Head to her post for all the details.

Teach Beside Me has a cute idea you can use in a lot of different ways called Save the Snowman. It’s balanced on straws and you can write sight words or math problems on the straws, and each round you have to remove a straw and read the word or answer the problem, trying to keep the snowman standing as long as possible. So fun!

Youaut-aknow has a great collection of winter fine motor skill ideas, several of which involve snowmen. The one shown involves snowman printables and buttons, which you can use for color matching or counting (or both, even!). This one kind of reminds me of a found-object snowman activity I did with my daughter years ago related to the book Snowballs.

Celebrating Mexican Independence Day

Lots of Americans seem to think that May 5 is Mexican Independence Day, but that holiday actually falls on Sept. 16.

May 5 is the celebration of the Battle of Puebla, in which the Mexicans defeated the French in 1862. Independence Day marks the beginning of their fight for independence from Spain in 1810. That was the day of what’s known as El Grito de Dolores, or the cry of Dolores, for when the Catholic priest Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla rang the church bells at his church in Dolores and declared that Mexico should be free from Spanish rule.

They would fight for their freedom until 1821 when they finally gained independence.

Fabulous Classroom has a little of the history and ideas for celebrating the holiday for all age groups. There’s also a link to a good video in that post about the real story of Mexican Independence Day.

Twinkl also has a good tops about the history and different activities, discussion ideas, crafts and foods that can be incorporated into lessons at school or used at home.

I also found a few pins that no longer link to a website but include good information on Mexican Independence Day, including some questions for students to answer based on the reading. You can find more printables and questions for kids from TX Homeschool Mama on Etsy (also available in Spanish).

You can find a lot more paid resources about Mexican Independence Day at Teachers Pay Teachers.

Mexican flag crafts are a fun option for celebrating Mexican Independence Day (though the current iteration of their flag has only been in use since 1968). Kids Activities Blog has a free Mexican flag printable and a few different ideas for decorating it including dot markers and torn tissue paper.

You can also find some great Mexican crafts at Red Ted Art. The post includes all sorts of Mexican inspired projects including Day of the Dead crafts, Frida Kahlo pinatas and upcycled musical instruments. I love the giant paper flowers they shared from Honestly WTF.
