The above age and time guidelines are estimates. This project can be modified to suit other ages and may take more or less time depending on your circumstances.

 

Materials Needed:

Instructions:
Cut the toilet paper roll into 1-inch wide pieces. You can use one or more toilet paper rolls, depending on how big you want your snowflake to be.

Paint your toilet paper roll pieces. Use whatever colors you like. You can also sprinkle them with glitter.

Once the paint is dry, glue the tube pieces into the shape of a snowflake. Experiment with different configurations! Let the glue dry and then use a piece of ribbon or yarn to hang up your snowflake.
