Snowman Information.
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.

Information on Snow.
Almost everyone in the colder parts of the world know the shimmering ice crystals called snow. Snow is formed when the water vapor I clouds is turned into moisture at a temperature below freezing, 32 degrees F. If the temperature is above freezing, rain falls instead of snow. Snow does not always reach the earth in its original from. Sometimes the ice crystals are partly melted and reach the ground as sleet. Sometimes they are entirely melted ad fall as rain.
Snow forms crystals which always have six rays, but the designs are always different. No two snowflakes have ever been found to be exactly alike. Large snowflakes are combinations of these crystal fragments and have been know to measure four inches in diameter. Collecting some flakes, on a black surface and examining them under a magnifying glass may show the elaborate designs in snowflakes. Wilson A. Bentley made photographs of more than 6,000 snow and ice crystals at his home in Jericho, Vermont.
