Christmas Snowman
Making a snowman has always been an exciting adventure for all age groups. Imagine a striking Christmas tree accompanied by a magnificent snowman this Christmas.
When you make a snowman of powdered snow, it becomes more difficult as the snow will not stick to itself. This is because the temperature of the packing snow drops and form an unusable version called crust which is the denser version of powdered snow.
The best time to build a snowman would be in the next day afternoon after a snowfall, when you can easily roll a large snowball. In Europe and North America, snowmen are built from three spheres of snow depicting the head, torso and the lower body. In parts of East Asia, the snowmen have only two spheres.
After you have built the figure, it is now time to dress your snowman. You can use carrots and/or cherries for the nose, stones for eyes, sticks for the arms and hats, scarves, jackets, etc. as accessories. This purely depends on your level of creativity.
