Printable Snowflake Templates to Get You Through Any Snow Day
Winter weather messes up travel plans and makes driving anywhere a nerve-wracking ordeal — but no matter what, we’ll always have a soft spot for a snow day, whenever we get one. When those big, fluffy flakes appear like magic and transform everything into a winter wonderland, and a blanket of snow hides imperfections and smooths everything out with an irresistible carpet of white, it’s like the Spanx of weather. True, a few inches of snow brings with it the stuff childhood dreams are made of (sledding and snowball fights, building igloos and snowmen) but it can also bring with it some serious cabin fever if, say, those few inches turns into a few feet. Sure, you can still bundle up and send the kids outside for a little while, but not all day. And you know you can only watch so many holiday movies on Netflix. What’s a housebound kid to do? We have the answer.
