10 Snowflake Crafts To Encourage Family Time
Let’s create some snowflake crafts, family memories, and downtime with the kids, grandkids, nieces, and nephews.
Crafting with your family is a great way to spend time together while also encouraging key skills such as visual processing, spatial rotation, executive function, muscle development and development of fine motor skills. As the child grows and develops the need for a creative outlet blossoms even more. In the older child, we see confidence building, improvement of decision-making skills and the feel-good emotion of knowing that you care enough to sit down and spend this important time with them.
Take advantage of this time to create with your loved one, teach skills and to offer a safe space for any conversation that may come out of this time together. Let’s get started!
This pipe cleaner snowflake craft is really cute and I do love that Camille at Growing Up Gabel keeps her decorations really meaningful.
I am the same way although I do like to mix in traditional Christmas balls.
The Vintage Button Snowflake is fun and unique. It is also a great way to use up any buttons in the house. Have fun with Carolyn Homework.

AHHH!! These are beautiful ideas! I love decorating with winter ideas. I have my snowmen decor and snowy trees that light up, among other decor. I’m going to share this with my daughter, since she might enjoy making some of these with her girls. Thanks for sharing!
That would be wonderful, thank you. I think it is so fun to decorate with homemade crafts.
I liked all the ideas for using the snowflake for crafts. About all I might be able to manage myself
would be the wreath. Not crafty! lol
Sometimes we are more craft oriented then we ever realize. You may surprise yourself.
Hi Elise,
Some great ideas here .. when my son was little we used to make things out of paper.. loved it.. I miss those times. I recently ordered some art supplies and look forward to getting them!
Crafting with the wee ones is such a darling time in life. Crafting as an adult is really fun too. I will look forward to hearing about what you create with your new supplies.
