About This Collection
Two more pages put a snowman next to kids: one beside a decorated Christmas tree, and one outside a cozy winter cabin. Then it's a full snow day. Two bundled-up children stack blocks into a curved snow fort, two more ride a wooden sled down a hill in puffy jackets and pom-pom hats, and two skaters glide across a frozen pond ringed by tiny decorated trees. A snow globe finishes the set, with an evergreen and a little snowman floating inside.
Younger kids can start with the single snowman or the snow globe. The sledding and skating pages carry more detail and suit ages 6 and up. Most of the paper stays white, so a gray or pale blue crayon helps with shadows.
Snowman and Snow Day Coloring FAQ
What kind of snow is best for building a snowman?
Wet, sticky snow, when it's just around freezing. Dry powder snow falls apart when you roll it.
Do other countries build snowmen differently?
In Japan, a snowman is often just two balls stacked up, called a yukidaruma. It's inspired by the round Daruma doll.
Why does a snowman have a carrot nose?
Nobody knows who started it. A carrot is easy to find in a kitchen and shows up well against white snow.
Do snowflakes really have six sides?
Yes. Snow crystals form with six sides or six arms, and no two look exactly alike. The Christmas Snow Globe design has a whole swirl of them.
Why is snow white?
Snow is made of clear ice crystals, but they scatter light in every direction, so it looks white.
Which designs are for winter in general, not Christmas?
Kids Building a Snowman, Kids Building a Snowman Near the Cabin and Kids Sledding Down a Snowy Hill work for any snowy day.
