Winter Fairy

Floating gently with frost-patterned wings, this delicate winter fairy wears a cozy petal dress with a soft fluffy collar and holds a large six-sided snowflake in her hands. Soft snowflakes drift down all around her, filling the page with a quiet, wintry feeling. The patterned wings and the detailed snowflake give older colorists plenty to shade, while the fairy's dress and the big drifting flakes are easy enough for younger children. This makes a great page for the holiday season or any snowy day spent indoors. Here is a real bit of winter science to share: every snowflake has six sides, because of the way water freezes into ice crystals. Coloring the six points of her snowflake is a fun way to notice that pattern. Print it on US Letter or A4, then reach for icy blues, silvers, and soft whites to keep the whole scene cool and frosty.
