Snowflakes

Niwa was so excited last Monday because we had the privilege of making snowflakes with Frances, Arabella and Kelsey. Each person had six squares of paper that we cut and folded and glued to create these 3-D snowflakes. It was fun and they looked amazing! People took their snowflakes home and gave them as sensational presents to their families.
