Sammy the Snow Puppy Craft

My six year old is home sick with a nasty cough and sore throat.I remembered a snow man craft my mom used to make with my sisters and I when we were little.It involved a toilet paper roll and cotton baton. I had both!

Pip and I were busy creating and realized the snowman looked more like an adorable Bichon Frise puppy.We added ears and went with the snow puppy idea! The little purple mustache is Pip’s touch–she wanted a French puppy.

This craft is super easy and super cute.

Unfortunately, my darling Pip is still quite ill and I spent the entire night up with her. No sleep. At the moment she is watching a Disney show while I update my blog. My doctor is out of the country so it is an overcrowded walk-in clinic. Will take her if she gets worse or her fever climbs.

*She’s worse. We’re off to the doctor!
