Making this print-and-play Q-tip STEM center was quick and easy!

To prep, I printed the snowflake tracing cards on cardstock for extra durability and cut them apart.

Then I grabbed a handful of Q-tips and slid them into a Ziploc bag.

That’s it. See?! I promised it was easy.

A little while later, I pulled out the Q-tip bag and invited my 5-year-old to pick a card and start tracing it with Q-tips.

Since every snowflake is different in the real world, I made a variety of designs for my mini-engineer. There were easy ones like this cross….

    1. Hi Courtney,
      When you click the blue “Download Here” button, a pop-up should open. You can try checking to make sure your browser isn’t blocking pop-ups from the site or try using a different browser. If you happen to be attempting the download at school, your district’s web filter may be blocking the pop-up. Let me know if you’re not able to get the snowflake cards!
