Easter Egg - Shape, Pattern and Symmetry.

These gorgeous Ukrainian Easter eggs are super, you could look at what shapes can be seen? find lines of symmetry, and look for patterns.
Children could use shape to create their own Ukrainian egg.
Thanks to the lovely Beth Bennet for the idea below, use angles to create symmetrical patterns similar to the Ukrainian eggs.

The Birth of a Snowflake.

A gorgeous time lapse movie, Snowtime is a 2-minute "microscopic time-lapse" by Vyacheslav Ivanov that captures the mesmerizing bloom of budding ice crystals in all their hexagonal glory. The ice crystal(s) in snowflakes owe their six-fold rotational symmetry to the hydrogen bonds in water molecules. As water freezes, water molecules bound to other water molecules crystallize into a hexagonal structure, where each point on the hexagon is an oxygen atom and each side of the hexagon is a hydrogen bonded to an oxygen. As freezing continues, more water molecules are added to this microscopic six-sided structure, causing it to grow in size into the six-sided macroscopic structure that we recognize as snow flakes.

Water's tendency to expand as it nears freezing – rather than condense, like most substances – is part of what lends its frozen crystal structure its unique shape. (It's also responsible for a number of water's unique properties, and why it's so essential to the existence of life.) Something to keep in mind the next time you're experimenting with good old H2O.

Complement with some stunning close-up photographs of snowflakes, here and here. (Some lovely pictures here)

[Vyacheslav Ivanov via Kuriositas]

This is a great video if you are looking at symmetry in nature, the resources below are mainly focused on this area.
