🎯 The Task (as shown in the image):
There are
three steps printed on the sheet:
>
Winter Paper Dolls
> 1. Cut around the paper dolls tidily
> 2. Cut the accessories on the next page with the hooks (small rectangles)
> 3. Now you can combine the dolls with the accessories hooked on the body
*(Note: The “next page” is not visible here, but it’s implied that the clothing/accessories are on separate sheets or sections.)*

✔ Solution / How to Complete the Activity:
#### Step 1: Cut Out the Paper Dolls
- Locate the
two doll outlines at the bottom left of the sheet.
- One has short hair (boy), one has long hair (girl).
- Both are drawn in black-and-white line art.
- Carefully cut around each doll’s outline using scissors — follow the outer edge neatly.
- These will be your “base” dolls.
#### Step 2: Cut Out the Winter Accessories (with Hooks)
- On the rest of the page (and presumably the next page), there are many
winter clothes: coats, sweaters, hats, boots, etc.
- Each piece has
small rectangular tabs (“hooks”) sticking out from the sides or top.
- Cut out each clothing item
including the hooks — these are essential for attaching them to the dolls.
- Example: A blue coat has small rectangles on the shoulders — those are the hooks.
#### Step 3: Assemble the Paper Dolls
- Take one doll and one clothing item (e.g., a pink coat).
- Slide the
hook(s) on the clothing item into the
slits or slots on the doll’s body.
- *(In paper doll sets like this, the doll usually has pre-cut slits where the hooks can be inserted — if not, you may need to gently make small cuts on the doll’s body where the hooks should go.)*
- Repeat with other accessories: put a hat on the head, boots on the feet, etc.
- You can mix and match outfits!

💡 Tips for Success:
- Use
child-safe scissors.
- Work on a flat surface.
- If the hooks don’t fit easily, gently bend them or make tiny slits on the doll’s body where needed.
- Encourage creativity — let kids dress the dolls for different weather or occasions!

🧸 Educational Benefits:
- Fine motor skill development (cutting, assembling)
- Creativity and imaginative play
- Learning about seasonal clothing (winter items)

✔ Final Result: You’ll have two paper dolls that can be dressed up in multiple winter outfits using the interchangeable accessories with hook-and-slot assembly.
