I teach grade 5/6 and we talked about creating a retro themed Christmas ornament. The design is space invaders influenced with the shots coming down slowly destroying the shield over the letters. Took a number of tries to get it flexible but now works. My students will be building similar trees this week with their favorite 8 bit character on top for their parents. Thinking of creating the other space invaders characters for some variation. Had a lot of fun making and printing this!
This object was made in Tinkercad. https://www.tinkercad.com/things/11RnyCEWpiX
Only tip really is to not print with a brim, as this slows clean up. Just 0.2 mm with 20% infill, you can probably make the size smaller but be aware some detail might be lost or perhaps you lose flexibility. Provided one color but also put in two seperate files that you merge in Cura if you want dual color.
