Eight-Spoke Snowflake with Button-Like Round Tips

A single snowflake fills the page, built from eight straight arms that spread out from the center like spokes. Each arm ends in a round circle, so the tips look a bit like little buttons or balloons. Around the middle, a thick outlined star shape wraps the arms, with V-shaped branches angling off each one. Inside this shape sit eight small diamond-shaped panels, arranged in pairs around the center. The lines are bold and the spaces are fairly large, which makes it easy for younger kids to stay inside. Try coloring the eight circles in one color and the diamonds in another, then use a third shade for the thick middle frame. It is also a nice way to talk about symmetry, since every arm matches the others. Print a few copies and let each child pick a different icy palette.
