Winter Fun!
Fun in the Snow!
When it snows, we can play! The snow is soft and white.
Make a Snowman
First, roll the snow into a big ball. Roll it more! Now it is bigger. Make another ball and put it on top. That is the snowman's body. Make a small ball for his head. Put rocks for his eyes. Use a carrot for his nose. A stick can be his smile. Look! A snowman!
Play in the Snow
Lie down and make a snow angel! Move your arms and legs. Get up. See the angel? We can throw snowballs too. Throw them at a tree, not at friends. It's fun to play!
Warm Up
Time to go inside! Our hands are cold. Drink hot chocolate. It is warm. We are happy! Snow days are fun!
