Kindergarten Winter Party Ideas

We just had my son's Winter party in Kindergarten this week.  This is my first year as a room parent and thought it would be helpful to share some of the ideas I used for the party this year.  We had a group craft, 4 stations, and snacks.
The group craft was making styrofoam snowmen.  I quickly found that no glue actually works to attach the balls together except a gluegun.  I settled for a toothpick instead.  Twigs for arms, orange construction paper carrot noses, and mini black brads for eyes and they were done.
 Station 1 Jack Frost Says (Simon Says)
 Station 2 Winter Bingo made from this awesome free site
 Station 3 Making a snowflake ornament using CTMH Snowflake Stamp set and the Art Philosophy Cricut Cartridge
Station 4 and my personal favorite Snowball Fight.  They read Jimmy Fallon's book Snowball Fight, then piled styrofaom balls on a parachute and flung them into the air.
My first try at peppermint pretzel bark.  It was a hit but not as pretty as the bark from the Pink Flour where I got the recipe.
