Seeing snow on top of the daffodils is really confusing! In celebration of the surprising weather, we made Spring Snowflakes at the clinic today.

Snow!

What you need
Those round paper coffee filters are great for this project. You will need coffee filters, water-based (non-permanent) markers, a brush and some water, and scissors.
First, draw a beautiful spring scene on your coffee filter—those daffodils that were so sunny and yellow yesterday, a rainbow, a rose, or just a colorful design.
- Then dip a paintbrush in just plain water and drip or paint the water on your drawing
- Watch the colors run together and blend—making your drawing into a soft-edged, melty design
- Spread your snowflakes out to dry
- When dry, fold them in half, then in half again, and half again and cut little notches and designs along the folded edges.
- When you open them up, you will have colorful concentric snowflake designs. Remember, no two snowflakes are alike, so it doesn’t really matter how you cut them.

Making it snow!

It’s snowing inside!
We were so excited about our snowflakes that we made an indoor snowstorm! Have fun!!
