Cotton balls and gauze
Cotton is a very useful tool when it comes to winter art projects. If cotton balls were just a little cooler, which looks exactly like mini snowballs! A child can draw a wonderful winter scene and then take the cotton balls and pull them out and fluff them and glue them in places where snow will be.

Plaster of Paris
Plaster of Paris can be used in fun ways for many, not just for winter crafts. One way to plaster of Paris can be used to make it a "footprint in snow. "I just need to fill a box lid or something meaningful with plaster of Paris. Once installed and dry a bit, students can make all different footprints on the  "snow.Â" They can use the side of a fist to make footprints that look like the footprints of a baby, or you can draw in the footprints of birds or other animals.
Pineapples
The birds that stay in places all through the winter need food. A winter craft that students can do is make a bird feeder pine cone. Students only have to cover a pine cone in peanut butter and dip in seeds from birds. After tying a piece of string to one of these pine cones can be hung on a tree outside. These pine cone bird feeders not only feed birds, act as ornaments on a tree outdoors.
Frost
Glitter can be added to any basic art project winter even more elegant and beautiful. For example, a child can cut a paper snowflake and then add silver glitter to make it even better.
