Snowflakes Galore!

Well that fast approaching snowflake weather is upon us. So I thought I would share a really great site that shows your child how to create wonderful looking paper snowflakes.

The site if Scissor Crafts for Children and they offer a wide variety of free samples and templates that you can print and have your child cut out. I really looks neat.

At this site that is also related to making the snowflakes is a whole unit about how snowflakes are formed from the scientific aspect.

This site also has actual photographs of crystallized snowflakes magnified. They are awesome looking.

I hope this has been helpful in creating your own winter wonderland adventure in your own home.
