Winter Solstice: Builder Snowflakes

Such a simple, beautiful quiet activity for a snowy (or not!) day.

With plenty of heavy beige felt, I cut a several 'base' hexagons to demo that snowflakes are six-sided.
Then I prepped various other shapes in sets of six, for construction.
You can also use a sheet of felt underneath to steady the pieces in place.

We've returned to this activity several times over the busy holiday season with new results at every attempt.
