Sparkle Snowflakes

Materials - (pipe cleaners, thread, glue, sparkles)

  1. Create the snowflake shapes from pipe cleaners:

    **  Cut one pipe cleaner in three pieces and twist them together in the center.  Tie a thread or wool around each of the arms to create a circle.

    **  Take one pipe cleaner and twirl it into a spiral shape.

    **  Take two pipe cleaners and twist them together in the center.  Bend the pieces to create square or rectangular sections of the snowflake.
  1. Put glue on the pipe cleaner snowflake.
     
  2. Dip the snowflake into the glitter and let dry.  Or put a pie plate or tray underneath the snowflake and sprinkle the glitter over the snowflake.
  3. Let dry.
  4. Have the kids check both sides of the snowflake to see if they want to add more glitter to any bare spots.

 Thanks to Jere B. for this project idea.

 

 

Hints:

  1. Use colored pipe cleaners to create colorful snowflakes.
  2. Some children will like multi-colored glitter, while other will want to choose their own color combination (e.g. blue pipe cleaners with silver glitter).
