Cold weather may keep us inside, but it provides a perfect opportunity for indoor arts and crafts with your child. The following snowflake activities provide not only a creative outlet but also a chance for your child to observe the patterns and shapes that will appear throughout their artwork. These activities will lead to both fun memories and decorations around the house!
Crayon Resistant Snowflakes: This activity needs a piece of paper, a white crayon, blue watercolor and a paintbrush. Have your child draw a snowflake on the paper with the white crayon. Make sure they press firmly to create thick lines. Next, have them paint over it with different shades of blue watercolor. The crayon will resist the paint, revealing the snowflake that your child drew.
