Kid's Craft-Snowmen

I have seen these little snowmen, or something like them all over the web. I have been wanting to do them with the boys for a while. Seriously they were so easy, and the boys thought they were way fun.
We just took huge campfire marshmallows (the normal size would be just fine, in fact probably better if you're not keen on peeling your kids off the wall after the sugar rush hits them), put three of them onto our skewers, I used frosting to "glue" everything down and for the "carrot" noses and chocolate chips. I wish that I had had mini ones for the eyes. Ours are a little bug eyed...full of character right? The top of the hat was Reeses mini's, but I wanted to use Rolos (couldn't find them, doesn't anyone eat Rolos any more?).  I think that the skewer poking out of the top of the hat problem would have been solved with Rolos

Like Palmer's shirt?  Last summer at camp he got to draw on a shirt with sharpie markers.  He made it over the other day.  That should be a project in itself.  He had a ball doing it, worked on it forever and it was just an old shirt we would have thrown out anyway.  I am not quite sure what "doggie camp" is, but it is probably something great right?
The boys loved things that they can do all by themselves. That was a plus to this activity. The only thing I did was to hold the frosting bag closed while they took the tip and put the frosting where they wanted it.
They were happy with the results. And I was happy to have something for them to do on a lazy Sunday afternoon (oh how I LOVE 9:00 church).
Hunter's snowmen had a little trouble with his nose and he ended up with a hook nose. We liked it.
When we were done Lincoln asked if they could eat them. Palmer told him "not until Mom takes a picture." I am glad that they have just come to expect it.
Apparently they were delicious, although they couldn't possibly eat all of those huge marshmallows. But they did a pretty good job.
