There are so many fun ways to paint a snowstorm, I couldn’t settle on just one! So instead, you get my rambling brainstorm of the many ways to paint a snowstorm! With each method, I like to start them out with a background picture, the scene behind the storm. I may have them color something with crayons or provide geometric shapes cut out of construction paper for them to glue on to create houses (square+triangle), trees (triangles), or even snowmen (circles). You could also cut out scenery pictures from travel magazines. Of course, you can also just paint the snow, particularly with younger children. For many children, the fun is just in controlling the storm, so the background doesn’t really matter much. Just be sure to use colored construction paper for each of these methods, so that the snow will show up! Darker colors like blue, gray, and black show the snow even more dramatically!
