Here is a family tradition I unintentionally started when I first had my daughter. I suddenly had a lot of indoor time that winter and started tinkering around with paper snowflakes.

We find a childlike enjoyment making these surprises that unfold in intricate designs.
I still have some hanging around the house that I laminated that first year.
