How to make snowflake art with tape for children

What you need:

  • White paper
  • tape (washi tape or masking tape is best)
  • tempera paint/watercolor paint (three shades of blue)
  • paint brush

Step-by-step instructions

If you are working with younger children (toddlers and preschoolers), you will need to apply the tape yourself.

Start by creating snowflakes using tape. You can use canvas or white construction paper as the background for this project. Start by adding tape in the center of the canvas.

Next add two diagonal strips of tape.

Cut the tape in half (or use thinner tape) and stick them on the canvas, creating a snowflake shape.

Once you or your child is satisfied with the shape of the snowflake, it’s time to move on to the next step.

Your child can use a regular brush, sponge brush, or even their finger to paint the spaces on the canvas. They can paint it one color or choose more colors.

Rotate the brush to create circular shapes.

Now paint it a lighter blue and add some dots.

Continue with the lighter blue.

Fill the entire paper around the tape.

It’s time to peel off the tape.

Pull them out gently.

Anti-snowflake ice art is complete!

You can make many snowflakes by mixing different tones and applying different tape to create unique snowflakes.

This snowflake will look great wherever you place it.
