* Give each child a white adult-sized sock and a coloured child- sized sock.

* Stuff the foot portion of the adult's sock with cushion stuffing.

* Cut the rest of the sock off from the heel up.

* Tie a knot at the open end of the sock so that the stuffing is secured.

* Tie a ribbon tightly around the stuffed sock about a third of the way down. As well as being a scarf, this will help to keep the snowman's head separate from its body.
