Q-tip Snowflake STEM Center
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.

Playing the Q-tip STEM Center
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….
And more challenging ones like this square and X combo.
He loved the hands-on game and I loved the grab-and-go fine motor activity.
