- Pencil, optional
- Hole punch, optional
- String, optional
Instructions:

- Older kids can use the pencil to wrap the tissue paper around and dab it in glue, then press it onto the snowflake shape.

- Punch a hole in the top of the snowflake.
- Use the string to attach it to the ceiling or to a light fixture over the table.
How to Make a Mickey Mouse Snowflake Without a Template

Supplies:

- Glue
- Paper- any color, cut into squares

- Pencil
- Hole punch, optional
- String, optional
Instructions:
- Print out a small Mickey head pattern onto a cardstock. Cut and set aside for later.
- Get a square piece of paper and fold it diagonally to the upper right corner to make the paper edges meet. Fold again into half with the paper edges meeting to make a smaller triangle.
- With the triangle’s point facing downward, fold both sides to the middle. If you want to divide the folds evenly, you can also use a ruler or protractor.
- Look for the side with the horizontal edge and cut across.
- Start cutting random smaller notches at the side of the paper, creating a uniform pattern. Leave out some space at the bottom.
- Open the paper, draw the Mickey Mouse head pattern in the middle, then cut.
