Crossed-Lines Snowflake with Thick Rounded Strokes

A single snowflake sits in the middle of the page, drawn with thick, rounded black lines. Six straight arms spread out from a center point, one pointing up, one down, one left, one right, and two diagonal lines crossing the middle. The vertical and horizontal arms each have a small V-shaped pair of branches near the tip, like little arrowheads. The four diagonal arms are plain and have no branches. Because the lines are wide and the shapes are so open, this one works well for younger kids who are still learning to stay inside the lines. Try coloring each of the six sections between the arms a different shade of blue, or use a white crayon or gel pen on dark blue paper. Older kids can also count the arms and talk about symmetry. The printable page leaves plenty of white space around the snowflake for a background.
