Easy Snowflake Ornaments
I always love getting creative with my students, and they LOVE making ornaments. This year, I wanted to make sure we made something that really showcased each child's unique, creative personality. I'm just not a fan of the foam/sticker cookie cutter ornaments that all look the same.
This year I decided to pull out that giant box of popsicle sticks I had in my cabinet and make snowflakes. This was a pretty easy project, but we worked on them two separate days. On the first day we just glued the popsicle sticks together. I wanted to make sure they didn't fall apart! This also gave me time to go to Hobby Lobby and buy some new glitter.
On the second day we used all of the fun glitter glue bottles and got a little messy! We had SO much fun, and the snowflakes turned out SO CUTE!! I love how each one is totally different!
The only part that really required adult work was hot gluing string to the back... and I had a volunteer do that part!
What easy ornaments do you make with your students?

I went into the store for 2 colors and came out with all of this... oops! |
