How to Print and Download

  • Use the Download PDF button on any card for a US Letter page, or choose the A4 link if your printer uses A4 paper.
  • Print in portrait orientation and choose “fit to page” so the whole snowflake stays inside the printable area.
  • Black-and-white printing saves ink, especially for classroom sets and winter activity folders.
  • Use regular printer paper for crayons and colored pencils. Try cardstock for garlands, window displays or marker projects.
  • To print just one page, use the Print or Download PDF button on that sheet’s card.

Coloring Tips and Ideas

  • Start with light blue, silver, lavender, mint and gray crayons for a frosty winter look, then let kids add their own favorite shades.
  • For easy pages, invite preschoolers to color one arm at a time and notice how the parts repeat around the center.
  • For detailed pages, older kids can pick a pattern: same colors on matching branches, alternating colors or a rainbow-style order.
  • Turn finished snowflake pages into a classroom bulletin board, quiet-time packet or paper winter mobile.
  • Pair these pages with folded paper snowflakes to compare drawn symmetry with cut-paper shapes.

Fun Facts About Snowflakes

  • Snowflakes begin when water vapor in a cold cloud changes into a tiny growing ice crystal around a small particle, according to NOAA’s student explainer (NOAA NESDIS).
  • Many snowflakes show six-fold symmetry, which means the same kind of shape repeats around six sides from the center (NOAA NESDIS).
  • Snowflakes can be simple or elaborate. UCAR explains that some are one ice crystal, while some fancy flakes are many crystals stuck together (UCAR).
  • Temperature and water vapor help decide whether snow crystals grow like plates, columns or prisms, which is why snowflake shapes can look so different (UCAR).
  • The National Weather Service defines snow as precipitation made of ice crystals, often with branched hexagonal shapes that may join into snowflakes (National Weather Service).
