This week we have been excited by SO MUCH SNOW. So we decided to bring snow indoors by creating snowflakes! Creating snowflakes is very much a magical process for pre-school aged kids. It involves a lot of folding and cutting and after a few shapes cut out, you unfold the paper and magically a snowflake appears! What I love about the project, is that there is no, "right-way" to make a snow flake and everyone is unique, just like the snow! Snowflakes also give the opportunity to practice cutting skills and gain fine motor muscles as they practice this skill. It is nice that there is no "pre-determined" line or path in which to cut on, it's just an opportunity to practice cutting and see what each fold and cut creates!
Many beautiful snow flakes were created.
Come on in and take a peak tomorrow and see them hung up on the wall of the Tel Aviv room!
