Winter break is still a novelty for the kids, but I'm already crying uncle. It's too cold and rainy to get outside much, and their only exercise has been a quick bike ride or two and several rounds of Dance, Dance Revolution.

They're a little antsy. I'm a little testy. But, my friend Chris saved the day (well, part of the day, and that is certainly something!) by linking to these instructions on how to make a 3-D paper snowflake.

The sorry photo to your right is of one that my ~~kids~~ husband made. I don't mind the rain except when it makes it so dark in the house that I have to use a flash.

So, parents and caretakers, get your craft on and make some fun and lovely decorations with the kids. Hang them all over the house, give them as gifts! You can even keep them up past Christmas, because winter is just beginning. Today, in fact, for those of us north of the Equator.

Trying one more time. My comments are disappearing. This time I'm copying them.

Here's a link to a free interactive snowflake program that will donate to The Salvation Army for each snowflake made.

I did these last year from what was probably the same site. Great fun.
