Snowmen Activities, Read Alouds and Crafts for Elementary Students in 2025

In an ironic twist, this post is about books about cold and snow and I am currently enjoying sunny and warm temps in the low 80s in Florida. Oh well! Like gingerbread activities, snowmen activities are great for the month of December because it offers non-denominational seasonal fun. A snowman-theme is also great for January!

There are so many fabulous crafts and writing ideas that springboard from snowmen. Check out a list of snowmen activities you can use in your elementary classroom this year below!
