Long ago, when toys were scarce and the closest neighbors could be miles away, children looked forward to the year�s first snowfall with great anticipation. This wonderful gift from heaven afforded them a chance to go sledding, but even more exciting, it gave them the opportunity to create a new companion, their very own snowman!
Each of the jolly fellows had its own distinct expression and life expectancy. With a carrot from the pantry, coal from the furnace, twigs from the yard, an old hat and sometimes a pipe borrowed from Grandfather, a child would magically build a snowman. Their man of snow would disappear when the weather warmed, but lived on in childhood memories.
Our snowy friends dance and that only children are able to see them. After a snowman has been built and left alone outdoors in the frigid air, he begins to come to life! The snowman dances to amuse and captivate the children who watch, for it brings happiness to his rather short life. So during Christmas, if your children seem to be staring out the window in a daze, do not worry, most likely a dancing snowman is entertaining them.
During the winter months, the snowman stands in the garden with his heart full of joy and snowflakes dancing around him. Children, dressed in warm winter jackets and thick wooly hats, laugh and throw snowballs. The snowman is the center of fun and games.
Unfortunately, winter ends, and spring arrives again. The children begin to desire the warm summer sun and hardly pay attention to the snowman. His heart becomes sad, and tears begin to roll down his cheeks. Soon, the tears gradually dry up. The next day, the snowman will disappear from the garden.

Amounts of Snowfall.
Snowfall varies greatly across the earth. Snow falls in the Polar Regions throughout the year. The heaviest snows occur during the winter in mountainous areas of the temperate zones, between the Tropic of Cancer and the Arctic Circle and between the Tropic of Capricorn and the Antarctic Circle. These areas include the western coastal ranges of North and South America and the Alps in Europe.
In the United States, the record for snowfall in one year was set from July 1971 to June 1972 when 1,122 inches of snow fell at Rainier Paradise Ranger Station in Washington. In 1921, 76 inches of snow fell in silver Lake, Colorado, which set a record for the largest snowfall during a 24 hour period.
A typical layer of snow on the ground would melt to form a layer of liquid water about one tenth as thick as the snow. One inch of water may be equivalent to as much as 30 inches of dry, fluffy snow. Snow is a major source of water in many places Mountain snowmelt, for example, feeds many rivers and streams.
