To you and your loved ones I wish a very Merry Christmas!
If you should find yourself with a little time on your hands and looking for some fun online today... here are a couple of suggestions from Your Technology Tutor:
Make A Snowflake
Remember when you were a kid and you would fold up a piece of paper, cut patterns, unfold and then look at your 'snowflake'? Well your kids (and you) can do that online without any paper trimming! Visit the Make-a-Flake website, click on 'Make Your Own Snowflake'. Then maneuver the scissors icon to where you wan to cut... click to begin, then click again and again to make a pattern/cut. Click Preview and your paper will unfold and show your work. You can even save to the online gallery for other to view. Cool!

debuted on the Web in 1996. It's one purpose is "to provide all of our visitors an enriched
