NO TWO ARE ALIKE....

The past few weeks have been the school holidays in Victoria and thankfully....big deep breath...they are over and the library is back to the normality of busy. Compared to being MEGA busy during the holidays. One of the children's programs I did for these holidays was Snowflake Sensation. We read wintry stories, sang wintry songs (did the winter Hokey Pokey where we put our mittens in, we put our mittens out...) and basically had fun. We created a wonderful snowman artwork to take home.... and we made snowflakes. The joy of making snowflakes is the fact that each one is different. There is no right or wrong way to make them. You simply fold and cut, whatever way you want. Often when we do an activity the children have to make theirs EXACTLY how I have made mine. Including the same colours, the same placement of stick or piece of paper. If I have a tree in the far left corner, they MUST have a tree in the far left corner. Creating snowflakes was very liberating....
